Companies House has announced that its fees will increase from 1 February 2026, with some fees increasing by more than 50%.
Incorporation filing fees will increase from £50 to £100 for digital filings, and £124 for paper incorporations. Confirmation statement filing fees will increase from £34 for both paper and digital to £50 for digital and £110 for paper confirmation statements.
Registering as an authorised corporate service provider (ACSP) will require a fee of £63.
Companies House has said that the increased income from fees will be used to fund its enhanced powers under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, alongside its basic services. It will also fund the Insolvency Service’s investigation and enforcement activity.
“The work we’re doing at Companies House, funded by our fees, is creating a transparent marketplace that boosts economic confidence and disrupts economic crime by taking robust action to prevent criminals from abusing the UK’s corporate structures, giving legitimate companies the assurance they need to do business in the UK,” Companies House said in a statement announcing the fee increases.
