FormSnap · free pre-formation check

Before you file at Companies House.

The 3-minute pre-check every UK Ltd founder should run before paying the £50 incorporation fee. SIC code (the right one — not the one the comparison site picks for you), officer eligibility, company name availability heuristic. Plus the BIAB upgrade path if you'd rather we just file it.
