We simplify the process of starting your business
At KPN Accounting, we simplify the process of starting your business by offering expert guidance and support for company registration in the UK.
Why Register a Company?
Starting a new business involves making key decisions about its structure. Two common options are operating as a sole trader or establishing a Limited Company.
To operate as a Limited Company, you’ll need to register with Companies House. We can get your company registered in just five minutes, and you can expect your certificate of incorporation within hours.
Private Limited Company (Ltd) by Shares
This is owned by private shareholders and offers limited liability protection, safeguarding personal assets if the company faces financial difficulties. It’s the most common company type, with over 2 million Ltd companies registered in the UK
Company Limited by Guarantee
Commonly used by non-profit organisations, this structure limits members' liability to a specified amount they agree to contribute if the company is dissolved
Public Limited Company (PLC)
A PLC allows shares to be publicly traded on the stock exchange, enabling the general public to invest in the company
Community Interest Company (CIC)
Designed for social enterprises, CICs focus on benefiting the community, with profits reinvested for public good rather than distributed to shareholders
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP
This hybrid structure combines elements of a partnership and a limited company, providing limited liability protection for partners
