Deadline to confirm your identity on Companies House is Tuesday 18 November 2025

[AlphaApple]

NB if you are a director of a limited company or a member of a partnership.

I’ve just done mine, not that I leave anything to the last minute …. 😁

good reminder, I asked our Accountant to do it a while ago

@Hoppinggreenas this is personal verification directors need to do this part themselves

Incorrect, you have 12 months to comply, from 18/11/2025.

I read it as 14 days from confirmation statement or the 1st of your month of birth.

I’ve done it, but do I need to do it individually for each company I’m a direct/PSC for?

Its not very clear.

Be warned, you may not get confirmation email! No idea why not, but I suspect because the site is busy.
Did not realise I had managed to verify identity on our company and was trying to re-do it.

@Ariela yes, I took a screenshot of my confirmation number, no email received as yet.

And yes, I was mistaken, I thought from the millions of reminders I was getting that 18 November was a deadline, although I file my confirmation statement soon so it's as good as.

It wasn't so much the reminders as the HUGE influx of scam emails purporting to be HMRC and saying 'click here' !
