Frequently Asked Questions

Company Secretary FAQs
for York Businesses

Every York limited company registered at Companies House must file an annual Confirmation Statement (CS01) confirming or updating company details including registered office, directors, shareholders, and PSC information. In addition, companies must file annual statutory accounts, and any changes to officers, share capital, or company details must be reported promptly using the appropriate forms (AP01, TM01, SH01, etc.). Failure to meet these obligations results in financial penalties and, ultimately, company strike-off.

A Confirmation Statement (form CS01) is an annual statutory filing confirming that Companies House information about your York company is accurate. It must be filed within 14 days of your confirmation statement due date, which falls 12 months after incorporation or your last Confirmation Statement. The filing fee is £34 online. Sirus Infotech monitors your due dates and files on time, every year, requiring zero chasing from you.

The PSC (People with Significant Control) Register lists individuals who own or control more than 25% of shares or voting rights, have the right to appoint a majority of directors, or exercise significant influence over your York company. Since June 2016, UK companies must maintain this register and file PSC details at Companies House. Changes must be notified within 14 days. Sirus Infotech maintains your PSC register accurately and ensures all required Companies House notifications are filed correctly and on time.

Appointing a new director requires passing a board resolution, obtaining the incoming director's written consent to act, and notifying Companies House using form AP01 within 14 days of appointment. The company's statutory register of directors must also be updated. Where your Articles require shareholder approval, the appropriate resolution procedure must be followed. Sirus Infotech handles the complete process — from drafting the resolution to filing AP01 — so the change is legally effective and correctly recorded.

Yes. We draft precise, legally sound board minutes covering routine meetings, AGMs, and extraordinary meetings. Well-drafted minutes are essential for banking purposes — UK banks require minutes for signatory changes and facility approvals — for investor due diligence, and for demonstrating proper corporate governance. Our minutes are concise, accurate, and ready for director approval without the time-consuming back-and-forth common with generalist accountants.

Yes. We manage the complete share transfer process including drafting the stock transfer form (J30), preparing required board resolutions approving the transfer, updating the register of members, and filing at Companies House via the next Confirmation Statement. Where stamp duty applies (transfers exceeding £1,000 consideration), we advise on the correct HMRC adjudication procedure and check any pre-emption provisions in your Articles of Association.
