Service Address
Use our Service Address and keep your home address off the public record
UK company directors, LLP members, company secretaries, and people with significant control, are legally required to provide a service address for the public record. The primary purpose is for receiving their personal statutory mail and legal documents from official UK government agencies, including Companies House and HMRC.
Most of our company formation clients prefer to keep their personal address details confidential, choosing instead to use our Service Address. This includes the free forwarding of all statutory service address mail to our clients, by scan and email, on a daily basis.
Please note:
- This product entitles one company officer to use the address. If you require the service for more than one officer, simply purchase the product for each person.
- You cannot purchase this product just once to use for multiple companies. If an officer wishes to use the service for an appointment in multiple companies, it should be purchased for use in each company.
How it works:
- Select the Buy Now button.
- You will receive an order fulfilled email and a receipted invoice.
- You will update your company records with our address at Companies House.
- We will scan and email your statutory mail directly to you free of charge, on the same day we receive it.

What is a service address?
This is the official address of a director, secretary or People with Significant Control (PSC) and is used by government agencies, such as Companies House, to deliver all personal statutory communications and notices.
Directors, secretaries and PSCs are required to provide a service address to form a limited company. The forwarding of service address mail is free of charge.
Can I use this service for my registered office address?
No. This service is for the use of one company officer and covers personal government mail only. If you are interested in using our registered office address service, please click here.
Is this service renewable?
This service is renewable on a 12-monthly basis at the cost of £26.00 and £24.00 for the London and Glasgow Service Address respectively.
What about general business mail forwarding?
The service address can only be used to receive official government mail for a company officer. If you would like to use our London WC2 address as your business address and have all your business mail and correspondence forwarded to you, please see our business address product which can be bought online.
What is unsupported mail?
From time to time our Mail Team may have to send out an email to a client on the subject of Unsupported Mail. This is sent when we receive mail that is outside of the client's service offering, e.g. we receive general business mail and the client has only purchased a registered office address service, which covers official government mail only.
Is there a cost to have my service address mail emailed to me?
No. The forwarding of official government mail by scan and email is free.
