Scottish Registered Office Address Service

All Scottish registered companies are legally required to have a Registered Office Address in Scotland. It is the address of a company to which Companies House (Edinburgh) letters and reminders will be sent. The registered office must always be an effective address for delivering documents to the company, and to avoid delays it is important that all correspondence sent to this address is dealt with promptly. If a company changes its registered office address after incorporation, the new address must be notified to Companies House on Form AD01

The registered office can not be a PO Box, it must be an address where legal papers can be served. The company's name should also be displayed outside of the premises. We can supply a brass name plate with your company name.

Benefits of using our Scottish Registered Office Service

Our address will be recorded at Companies House Edinburgh and all official mail will be forwarded to your designated address. We will also display your company name at the premises as required by law.

Why? Your company's registered office is available for public viewing over the internet free of charge, this can lead to your address being targeted for junk mail! Use our address and we intercept the Junk for you and you retain your privacy, especially useful if you work from home.

Do you want to give the impression your company is larger than it really is? By using our registered office address and your own address as a trading address it gives the impression that you operate from two locations.

Prestige! If your own address is perhaps a little uninspiring why not take advantage of our prestigious address and impress your customers by using Summit House, 4 - 5 Mitchell Street, EDINBURGH, EH6 7BD, Scotland. We do not ask you to use a Suite number, department number, simply your company name then Summit House, etc.

For Scottish companies owned by overseas residents it is a legal requirement to have a UK registered address where official government mail can sent

All Official Government Mail is forwarded the same day we receive it.

Please note that our registered office facility is only for forwarding official government mail (HM Revenue and Customs, Companies House etc..). It is not to be used for any other correspondence or trade mail.
