Company Secretarial Services for UK Businesses That Stay Fully Compliant
Missing a Companies House filing deadline leads to penalties, public records showing non-compliance, and potential strike-off proceedings. ABM Chartered Accountants manages your company secretarial obligations so every filing is made on time, every register is up to date, and your company stays compliant.
Every Filing Made and Every Register Maintained
Company secretarial work covers the statutory filings and record keeping that every UK company must maintain. This includes your annual confirmation statement, changes to directors and shareholders, PSC register updates, and the maintenance of your statutory registers. ABM Chartered Accountants handles all of this so your directors can focus on running the business.
Our ICAEW and ACCA qualified accountants file your confirmation statement each year, notify Companies House of any changes to your officers or registered details, maintain your statutory registers, manage identity verification for directors and PSCs, and keep your company’s public record accurate and current at all times.

ABM Chartered Accountants tracks every deadline, prepares every filing, and submits everything on time so your compliance record stays clean and your company stays active.
With the ECCT Act now giving Companies House greater powers to challenge filings, query addresses, and require identity verification for all directors and PSCs, the standard expected of company administration has risen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to the company secretarial questions we hear most often. Contact our team for guidance.
What are company secretarial services?
Company secretarial services cover the statutory filings and administrative obligations that every UK company must meet under the Companies Act 2006. This includes filing your confirmation statement, notifying Companies House of director and shareholder changes, maintaining statutory registers, and managing your PSC register.
What is a confirmation statement?
A confirmation statement is an annual filing that confirms your company’s details at Companies House are accurate and up to date. It must be filed at least once every 12 months. The digital filing fee is 50 pounds from February 2026. Late filing can lead to your company being struck off the register.
What happens if I miss a Companies House deadline?
Late filings result in penalties and a non-compliance flag on your public record. For confirmation statements, persistent failure to file can lead to strike-off proceedings. For annual accounts, late filing penalties range from 150 to 1,500 pounds depending on how late they are.
What is the PSC register?
The PSC register records the persons with significant control over your company. A PSC is anyone who holds more than 25 percent of shares or voting rights, has the right to appoint or remove directors, or otherwise exercises significant influence. This register must be filed with Companies House and kept current.
Do directors need to verify their identity now?
Yes. From November 2025, all new directors and PSCs must verify their identity with Companies House. Existing directors have until November 2026 to comply during the transitional period. ABM Chartered Accountants guides you through the verification process and ensures your filings reflect verified status.
How much do company secretarial services cost?
Fees depend on the number of filings required and the complexity of your company structure. We offer fixed annual pricing that covers your confirmation statement, routine filings, and register maintenance. Contact ABM Chartered Accountants for a quote based on your company’s needs.
