If you thought all company formation agents were the same, think again! Even if the end product is similar, company registration agents are not.
Look for an agent with a clear pricing structure with no hidden charges. Beware of company registration agents offering deceptively cheap packages which end up costing more at a later stage.
You should also be looking for an informative, clear website with completely secure payment options, and the possibility to get helpful support and advice over the phone when you need it.
Also check that your agent will send full company documents, not just an electronic copy of the certificate of incorporation and memorandum and articles of association. If you do not receive Company Registers or Share Certificates, you will have to pay for these later on.
Equally, look for incorporation with your own details, not those of nominees. If nominees are used, the agent then has to transfer shares to you after incorporation and send you forms to appoint a director and secretary. This can delay opening up business bank accounts and that the agent’s nominee details will be on your company paperwork, and at Companies House, for the life of your company.
