Where’s my certificate of incorporation?

All of our company formation packages include a digital copy of the company’s certificate of incorporation (plus some of them include a hard copy of the certificate). In this post we’re going to look at how you can download your certificate as soon as your company has been formed.

The certificate of incorporation is an official company document, drawn up by Companies House (the UK’s registrar of companies), that includes the following information:

• Company name
• Company number
• Formation location
• Date of formation

You can download your certificate from our site (as long as you formed your company with us) as soon as your company has been formed. To do this:

Login > select ‘My Companies’ > click on your company name > scroll down to ‘My Company Documents’ > select ‘View’ next to ‘IncorporationCertificate.pdf’ > the certificate will automatically be downloaded on your computer.

If your company formation package included a hard copy of the certificate of incorporation you can expect to receive this within a week of formation (although longer if you are based overseas). If you do not receive your certificate get in touch and we’ll arrange for another to be sent out.

We hope you found this post useful!
