This is the regulatory body for UK companies. All companies, charitable or otherwise, must file accounts at Companies House within 9 months of their year-end (6 months in the case of a plc), and if they do not do so then automatic penalties come into play. Companies House keeps a searchable register and also keeps a register of directors of companies. Companies need to inform Companies House of any changes in directors’ details within 30 days, and should also complete an annual return.
