UK company formation and business setup guidance for local and international owners: structure, Companies House registration, registered office, bank account preparation and compliance.
The United Kingdom is one of the easiest places in the world to register a company, and many entrepreneurs from Pakistan, the UAE and elsewhere set up UK limited companies to trade internationally. Registration itself is quick, but choosing the right structure and preparing for banking, tax and compliance takes careful planning.
ZANS Consultants provides private consultancy guidance on UK company formation and the steps that follow. We are not Companies House or a government body, and you can also register a company directly on GOV.UK.
Choosing between a limited company and other structures
Companies House registration, directors, shareholders and persons with significant control
Registered office address and SIC codes
Identity verification requirements for directors and PSCs
Business bank account preparation and introductions to suitable providers
Post-registration compliance: confirmation statements, accounts and HMRC registration
Entrepreneurs and e-commerce sellers starting a UK business
International companies opening a UK presence
Consultants, recruiters and professional service providers
Property investors using a UK company structure
Owning or registering a UK company does not give anyone the right to live or work in the UK. If you plan to move to the UK, you need a separate immigration route, for example Innovator Founder, Expansion Worker or a sponsor licence for a genuine trading business.
UK banks carry out their own checks and decide whether to open an account, and tax depends on where the business is managed and trades. We help you prepare and, where needed, refer you to qualified accountants.
