Customer Guidelines
Forms delivered to Companies House are scanned to produce an electronic image. Section 706 of the Companies Act 1985 allows Companies House to reject documents that cannot be captured electronically, giving a notice saying why they are unacceptable. An acceptable copy must be delivered within 14 days of the notice (otherwise we treat the original as not having been delivered).
The guidelines below set out the quality of the documents that we require in order for us to accept them.
- We prefer forms to be completed on-line or optionally they may be printed and completed by hand.
- To complete on-line click in the first active field, enter data and use your tab key to move to the next field. To complete any check boxes press the spacebar. On completion please print the form, sign and date it before returning it to us by post.
- Do not use a dot matrix printer as this will not provide the required output quality.
- All statutory forms available on our site have to be dated and signed and sent to us by post.
- Documents must be on A4 paper which is white or otherwise of a background density not greater than 0.3.
- Documents must be on paper with a matt finish.
- Each page must have a 10mm margin on each side.
- Letters and numbers must be clear, legible and of uniform density - use black ink or black type and bold lettering (some elegant thin typefaces and pens give poor quality copies).
- Letters and numbers must at least 1.8mm high, with a density of at least 1.0.
- Remember - photocopies can result in a grey shade that will not film well.
