PSC Documents for Limited Liability Partnerships

Under the Companies Act 2006, as amended by the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023, LLPs are required to identify the people with significant control over them (PSCs) and provide this information directly to Companies House where this information is publicly recorded. The information is no longer recorded in a local register. This is a significant change introduced in November 2025. 

PSCs include those who directly or indirectly hold rights over more than 25% of the surplus assets on a winding up of the LLP, those who directly or indirectly hold more than 25% of the voting rights of the LLP or those who directly or indirectly hold the right to appoint or remove the majority of those involved in the management of the LLP. LLPs are required to file this information directly with Companies House.

This collection is drafted specifically for use by LLPs in implementing the PSC regime. The regime applies to LLPs in much the same way as it applies to companies, but there are certain differences in how LLPs and their designated members should carry out the process.

It includes the LLP specific statutory notices used to identify PSCs and registrable relevant legal entities, collecting confirmed information, dealing with changes and non-responses, and making the relevant filings.

Protecting Personal Details for LLP Members and PSCs

LLP members and PSCs whose personal details are on the public register can, in some cases, apply to Companies House to have some of those details, such as a home address, removed from public view.

An LLP member or PSC can also apply to protect their details if they reasonably believe that they, or someone who lives with them, are at serious risk of violence or intimidation because of the LLP's activities. Protection keeps their home address from credit reference agencies.

A PSC can also apply for all their PSC details to be kept off the public register. This applies if they reasonably believe that disclosure of those details by Companies House would put them, or someone who lives with them, at serious risk of violence or intimidation because of the LLP's activities or their personal characteristics when associated with the LLP.

Companies House's guidance covers LLPs as well as companies and explains who can apply and how: Removing your personal details from the Companies House register and Apply to protect your details on the Companies House register.
