eBooclick Frequently Asked Questions

 

1. Introduction

 

As eBooclick expand and develop, the company is asked many different questions of the nature of our business and how we operate. As such, this section will be devoted to commons questions. However, if there is any issue you may wish to discuss the matter with our consultants. 

Now because we haven't got the ultimate wisdom, we welcome any ideas that can help our clients in the future. Please contact us at any time, we would love to hear from you.

Also, we have drafted this paper in response to the amount of misinformation regarding UK limited

Companies. This paper gives you the basic and honest facts about forming a UK limited company and all of the information below can be confirmed at eBooclick.com

Within this paper we are not trying to sell you any products or services, we are simply trying to inform you of the facts in an unbiased manner.

 

BUSINESS INCORPORATION

 

2. Are the companies we form legal?

Yes, every company formed by eBooclick comes with all the required documentation, it is 100% legal. Our companies do not require any other documents. Certain competitors will employ scare tactics to try and claim your company is not legally compliant in order to sell you services that you do not require. Beware of these scams and feel free to contact us should you feel you are being targeted.

 

3. What documents do you need to form a limited company?

As we do online company formations you will be required to submit document such as a proof of ID and a registered Address. You will need the following details at hand:

• Registered Office Address

• Proof of ID

Your registered office is required to be in England & Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.

It cannot be a PO Box.

 

We might also require the following:

 

Director Details (Min 1, no max)

4. Director Requirements

• Every company must have at least 1 director.

• The director can also be the sole shareholder which means you can incorporate a single

person company.

• All directors must be 16 years or older.

• Directors do not have to be UK residents (they can reside anywhere in the world)

Corporate (company) directors are permitted, but cannot stand-alone in the position.

 You need at least 1 human director to be appointed regardless of how many corporate directors.

 

5. Company Secretary Requirements

Company secretaries are no longer compulsory. Most companies are now incorporated without a secretary.

 

6. Registered Office Requirements

Every limited company must have a registered office in the UK (ie. England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland). The registered office cannot be a PO Box and has to be a physical address whether it is your home address or a trading address. It must be an address at which official documents can be served. Your registered office address is available for anyone to view free of charge on the public record. Hence most people avoid using their home address and instead opt to use their trading address or a 3rd party registered office service.

 

 

7. Company Incorporation Filing Fee

We charge a flat fee of £150 with all support taking the burden off your shoulders.

 

8. Opening a Business Bank Account

Typically banks will require the following from the company to open an account:

1. Certificate of Incorporation

2. Confirmation of Shareholdings at Incorporation

3. Proof of ID for company officers (eg. Passport, recent utility bill)

• If you open a Barclays account through us, we will send the required company

documentation direct to Barclays. All you have to do it produce your proof of ID.

Depending of the client requirement, we can also open a business account in other financial institutions.

 

9. Filing your annual return each year

An annual return is a snapshot of general information about a company's directors,

secretary (where one has been appointed), registered office address, shareholders and

share capital. Full details below:

• Company Name

• Company Number

• Made Up Date (Usually the anniversary of the incorporation)

• Principal Business Activity

• Company Type (eg. Private or Public)

• Registered Office

• Director Details

• Secretary Details (where one has been appointed)

• Statement of Capital

• Shareholder Details

 

When must it be filed? Every company must file an Annual Return to Companies House at least once every 12 months. The window for filing the Return must be within 28 days after the anniversary of incorporation or of the made‐up date of the last Annual Return. Eg. If the company was incorporated on 02/03/2010 then the annual return must be filed by 30/03/2011.
