You now need to set up a verified GOV.UK One Login to confirm your identity with Companies House.
To verify your identity at Companies House, you can use the GOV.UK online verification service if you have one of several accepted photo identification documents. These include a biometric passport from any country, a full or provisional UK photo driving licence, a UK biometric residence permit or card or a UK Frontier Worker permit.
You will also need to provide your current address along with the year you moved in, and you must sign into or create a GOV.UK One Login account to complete the process. Your verified identity will then be linked to your GOV.UK One Login account.
A recent update to the guidance published by Companies House makes it clear that each email address can only be used once for identity verification. If other individuals use the same email address to access GOV.UK One Login, they will need to register a separate account with a different email address.
If you do not have any of the accepted forms of photo ID but live in the UK, there are alternative ways to verify your identity. These include verifying your identity in-person at a Post Office or using details from your bank or building society account together with your National Insurance number.
If you are unable to verify your identity using any of the available online or in-person methods, you can appoint an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP), such as an accountant or solicitor to verify your identity on your behalf.
