UK Company Incorporation
Why might you want to incorporate a UK company or LLP for your clients?
- Many business owners need or want a company based in the UK to manage their trading activities here, or to establish a business presence in the UK or as a base in Europe
- The United Kingdom is one of the easiest and least expensive countries in the world in which to establish a limited company
- UK companies have a strong reputation globally. European law allows UK companies to operate anywhere within the EEA without restriction, plus UK law places no trading restrictions so a UK company will be able to trade anywhere in the world.
- UK law places no restriction on where the management of the company is based, or where directors or shareholders are resident. UK companies can be managed from anywhere in the world.
- Many other countries have a much higher cost and take a lot longer to incorporate in. Plus they often require high levels of capital for a new company to be incorporated, but UK companies need only a minimum £1 paid up capital, and incorporation is complete within just a few hours.
- A UK company can be established with its share capital in other currencies.
- Company dividends are free of withholding tax
Why should you use Company Express?
You will find many companies offering UK Limited and LLP (Limited Liability Partnerships) and it can be confusing in terms of which to choose if you have little experience.
It is tempting to just choose based on price, but you are unlikely to get a reputable, trustworthy, professional, licensed service from a company with a physical office based in London.
Our prices are very competitive and there are no hidden extras, but the real difference is in our professional credentials, our approach plus the advice and service we offer all our clients.
