Confirmation statement filing in Wokingham

Confirmation statements for Wokingham companies

A confirmation statement tells Companies House that the information it holds about your company is correct: registered office, directors, shareholders and people with significant control. It is due at least once every 12 months, and the statement must be filed within 14 days of the end of your review period. Missing it can lead to the company being struck off.

Wokingham ranks 416 of the 1105 areas we serve by number of micro businesses, and its micro share of 91% is above the 89% average across them. In information and communication (1,470 micro businesses in Wokingham), software subscriptions, equipment and contractor invoices are common, and contractors often ask about IR35, so we review both when preparing your return. In construction (1,060 micro businesses in Wokingham), Construction Industry Scheme deductions, retentions and stage payments can distort profit, so we reconcile your CIS statements before the accounts are prepared.
