Company Registers Factsheet CO.CS.09
The Company Registers Factsheet is a practical ‘how to’ guide covering key corporate documents – the company registers. It tells you what access must be allowed to the public to view and copy your corporate registers, and where you must keep the registers.
The Companies Act 2006 requires that certain specific records relating to company administration must be kept at your registered office or the single alternative inspection location (SAIL) notified to Companies House. They may be written, printed or in machine readable form. Some aspects of the company's affairs are a matter of public record and Companies House must be informed of certain events within the prescribed time limits otherwise penalties will be incurred.
This Company Registers Factsheet is a simple guide to help Company Secretaries and Finance Directors apply the company records also included in this Sub-folder, maintain these records, and ensure where appropriate that they are filed within the prescribed period(s) at the Companies Registry.
