Company directors have ongoing legal responsibilities to ensure their business complies with Companies House requirements. With increasing regulatory oversight and new identity verification rules, maintaining compliance is more important than ever.
At Francis Davies, we support limited companies across South Wales with efficient and professional Companies House compliance services.
Under recent legislation introduced through the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, company directors and Persons with Significant Control (PSCs) are required to verify their identity with Companies House.
These measures are designed to increase transparency and reduce corporate misuse.
Verification requirements apply to:
Existing directors
Newly appointed directors
Persons with Significant Control (PSCs)
Individuals forming new companies
Failure to comply may restrict your ability to file documents or act as a director.
Francis Davies is registered as an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP), enabling us to undertake identity verification and company filings under the new Companies House framework.
As an ACSP, we are authorised to carry out director identity verification and act on behalf of clients in meeting statutory compliance requirements. This provides reassurance that your company obligations are managed correctly and in accordance with current legislation.
We assist with:
Director identity verification guidance
Confirmation statement preparation and filing
Changes to directors or PSC details
Registered office updates
General company secretarial support
We ensure statutory deadlines are met and filings are completed accurately.
Failure to meet Companies House obligations can result in:
Financial penalties

Restrictions on director activity
Reputational risk
Proactive compliance helps ensure your company continues operating without disruption.
We provide clear guidance and practical assistance, helping directors understand their responsibilities without unnecessary complexity.
Our aim is to make compliance simple, efficient and properly managed.
If you require assistance with Director ID verification or ongoing Companies House compliance, we would be pleased to assist.
