At CPIE Services, we have helped many companies establish themselves in the UK – without losing sight of the big picture along the way.
England remains one of the most attractive destinations for companies looking to expand abroad. But even though it can be quick to set up a limited company online, getting started properly and effectively is another matter entirely.
1. Business in England – getting the basics right
First and foremost, we talk to you about:
- Your business model and market
- The need for local presence
- Desired ownership structure and liability
- Any requirements from customers, partners or authorities in the UK
It’s not just about setting up a company – it’s about making sure you do it right from the start
2. Correct and error-free compaby formation (Ltd.)
Once the decision has been made, we will set up your British company.
We will take care of:
- Advice on name and company form
- Registration with Companies House
- Correct specification of SIC code (industry)
- Reporting of Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO)
- Creation of digital access (web filing login)
3. Company with local address and presence
A UK business address must have a physical address in the UK (not a PO box) – especially for bank accounts and certain registrations.
We offer:
- A registered company address in the UK
- Option for mail handling and forwarding
- Assistance with local manager or representative (if required)
4. Bank account – reach your goal
A bank account is often the biggest hurdle – especially after Brexit and stricter documentation requirements.
We help with:
- Choosing the right bank (physical or online)
- Preparing documentation
- Communicating with the bank (if necessary)
- Offering alternatives
Our experience: With the right preparation, success comes much more often – and much faster.
5. Get to grips with VAT, payroll and administration
Depending on your activities, your company may need to:
- Register for VAT
- Set up for PAYE (if paying wages)
- Report annual accounts and corporation tax
We advise on:
- What you must and should register for
- How to avoid fines and missed deadlines
- Which British accountants and bookkeepers we recommend
6. Ongoing operations – without stress
CPIE Services acts as your hands-on link to the UK system.
We do the following:
- Keep track of deadlines and documentation
- Ensure correct communication with British authorities
- Help you focus on your business, not the paperwork
- Are always on the end of the phone or email
