A Certificate of Good Standing is a certified document issued by Companies House that confirms a company’s registration and continued existence in the United Kingdom.

It also confirms there are no proceedings underway to close the company, and it has submitted its required annual filings with Companies House – the annual accounts and confirmation statement.

What information is included on the Certificate of Good Standing?

We will order your Certificate of Good Standing to include the following information:

• Company name and number
• Date of incorporation and incorporation act (e.g. Companies Act 2006)
• Jurisdiction (England and Wales, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland)
• Confirmation of unbroken existence
• Confirmation of no action being undertaken to strike off (close) the company
• Director(s) name(s)
• Company secretary name(s) (if applicable)
• Company objects (if applicable)

You can also request Companies House include additional information on your Certificate, if required. Special text boxes are available on our order form to allow you to enter the additional information needed.

Please note: Companies House is unable to enter any information with regards to the company’s share capital and shareholders.
