Prepare the internal decision records and Companies House filing needed when a director joins, leaves or changes permitted officer details.

Make the corporate decision first, then keep both the internal register and public record aligned.

A director appointment or resignation is more than changing a name online. The company must make the decision in accordance with its articles, retain an appropriate board record and update its statutory information.

We organise the routine documentation, confirm the effective date and prepare the correct Companies House notification. A new director must consent to act and may need to complete identity verification before the appointment can be accepted.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Director Appointment & Resignation Service FAQs

Practical answers about eligibility, documents, timing and responsibility.

How quickly must Companies House be told?+

Director appointments, resignations and many detail changes are normally notified within 14 days.

Can a sole director resign?+

The company must still satisfy its legal and constitutional requirements. A replacement may need to be appointed before the resignation is effective.

What is a service address?+

It is the public correspondence address for the director. The residential address is supplied separately and is normally protected from the public register.

Can you remove a director who refuses to resign?+

That is not a routine resignation filing and may require a statutory removal process and legal advice.

Does a new director need identity verification?+

Yes, Companies House identity-verification rules apply to new director appointments.
