Start your new company with no setup or registration cost to you. When you sign up for our one-year Accountancy & HMRC Compliance Services agreement, we will provide professional assistance with your company formation and cover the £100 Companies House registration fee on your behalf.
Our experienced accountancy team will guide you through the formation process, helping ensure your company is set up correctly from the outset. Once registered, we’ll continue to support you with your ongoing accountancy, Companies House and HMRC compliance requirements, giving you a reliable team to help keep your business organised, compliant and ready for growth.We give expert advice to businesses on forming companies, and we can complete the set-up of your limited company free of charge.
E-Tech Consultancy & Services will advise you on trading as a limited company, a limited liability partnership, or a sole trader. We will explain the tax and commercial advantages and disadvantages of each.
Once you have reached an informed decision, we will help register you with HMRC for Corporation Tax, VAT and PAYE, and deal with any other related matters, so that you can start trading in your new business from day one. For 2026/27, a company must register for Corporation Tax within 3 months of starting to do business, VAT registration is compulsory once taxable turnover exceeds £90,000 in any rolling 12-month period (or is expected to exceed it in the next 30 days), and PAYE must be set up before the first payday.
To register your company, we’ll need the following information and documents to complete the application:
Your preferred company name, along with the essential information required to set up and officially register your new company.
A valid UK address that will be used as your company’s official registered address for receiving statutory notices and correspondence.
An active email address that Companies House can use to send important notices, updates and official communications about your company.
A formal confirmation that your company is being established for lawful purposes and will carry out its business activities in accordance with UK law.
Full details of all company directors and People with Significant Control (PSCs), together with the information required to complete identity verification.
A formal document confirming that the founding shareholders have agreed to establish the company, become members and take shares in the business.
The company’s official governing rules, setting out how it will be managed, how important decisions are made and the responsibilities of its directors and shareholders.
Free company formation means you can register a UK limited company at no cost when you sign up for our accounting & Tax services. We handle the entire registration process and make sure your company is legally incorporated with Companies House. You simply choose your company name and provide the necessary details, and we take care of the rest, completely free.
Our free company formation service lets you register a private limited company (Ltd). If you need to form a different type of entity, such as a limited liability partnership (LLP) or a non-profit, get in touch with us to discuss your options.
Most UK limited companies are formed within 24 - 48 hours, subject to Companies House processing times. Directors and PSCs must complete identity verification before the application is submitted, so we recommend doing this first. You will receive your official incorporation documents by email as soon as your company is approved.
You will need to provide:
• A valid proof of ID (passport or driving licence)
• A proof of address (utility bill or bank statement, dated within the last 3 months)
• The details of the company directors and shareholders
• Completed Companies House identity verification for each director and person with significant control, including their personal code (this can be done directly with Companies House or through an authorised provider)
• A registered email address for the company
Our team will guide you through the process to ensure a smooth registration.
