From 1 February 2026, Companies House will be updating a wide range of its fees for company registrations, filings, and other statutory services.

These adjustments will affect limited companies, LLPs, limited partnerships, overseas entities, and more — marking one of the most significant fee updates in recent years.

💡 Why the Change?

Companies House has confirmed that these revisions aim to ensure fees reflect the true cost of providing digital and paper-based services.

The update also supports their ongoing modernisation and the introduction of new powers and digital reforms under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023.
