THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE SETTING UP YOUR LIMITED COMPANY

Navigate the nuances, plan with precision

There are several things that you should consider before you set up your limited company. Getting these things right from the outset will give your new business the best possible start, so thinking carefully about them in advance makes sense

You’ll want to choose your company name carefully, but it’s also worth considering more than one option. If your first choice already exists on the company register or it’s too similar to another company’s name, you won’t be able to use it. You might also want to check Companies House’s guidance on company names.

Legally, your company will need at least one director, who will likely be yourself. You have the option to name other directors as well, either at formation or at a later date. A director must provide two addresses: a correspondence or “service address” for the public register and their home address, known as the “usual residential address”.

Your registered office address is the company’s official address. It must be a physical location where notices, letters and reminders can be delivered to the company. Ensure that your address allows a business to be run from it.

The allocation of shares is normally done when the
company is formed; check that the shareholder(s) are as you want and that the company is owned in the proportion you requested. Remember, dividends are paid to shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings. Further shares can be issued and allocated later on if your circumstances change.
