About the company formation with a trust establishment package

Setting up a company with the UK trust structure - safeguarding wealth is essential in order to ensure that hard earned capital doesn't get whittled away by unnecessary taxation, creditor demands or your competitors. Many business owners, particularly those with international interests, are choosing to set up a limited company with a trust in order to protect their assets from unwanted attention.

One consideration is whether to set up the trust. The simplest, most transparent method of forming a UK trust is to name yourself as the settlor and a third person as the beneficiary.

Once the trust is established, it will be appointed as shareholder and as the second corporate director of the new limited company, allowing the trustees to be nominated to the role of a first director and secretary.

The mentioned structure offers the benefit of protecting the beneficiary from the public record register, and its interests will benefit from total protection by the nominated trustees, whom will also be responsible for the management of the limited company affairs on behalf of the trust.

When your business structure will be ready

The trust registration and the formation of a limited company usually takes as little as four to six hours from the time that Coddan receives your application and the payment. We will file your application electronically with Companies House allowing the fastest possible registration.

This generally means that if you place an order before 11 a.m. (London time) on a normal working day, your company will be registered by the end of that day. The registration can sometimes take slightly longer. Although the majority of companies are incorporated within a maximum of 24 hours, there may be occasions where the process takes longer due to circumstances beyond our control.

Please note that, although your company will generally be registered in four to six hours, the preparation and delivery of your corporate documents typically takes slightly longer. Please take the note upon your consideration that we cannot finish with your business incorporation until we receive the certified copies of your Due Diligence documents.

About the money laundering regulations and registration of your company

Due to the implementation of 2017 Money Laundering Regulations (EC Fourth Money Laundering Directive 2015/849) on 26 June 2017 it is now necessary for all Trust and Company Services providers including company formation agents (in our case: Coddan CPM LTD) to register with the HM Revenue & Customs and to put anti-money laundering systems into place.

We are required to ask for the scanned identification of a company members and beneficial owners of all newly registered companies via e-mail first before we can undertake to provide incorporation service for your business structure.

Within 14 days we will require you to post us a recent utility bill(s) (for past three months) showing names and current addresses of your company' members and beneficiary owner(s)', and also their passport or driving licence(s).

These can be original documents or copies certified by a solicitor, notary public or commissioner for oaths. If you are an overseas based client you should provide us copies of passport(s) and utility bill(s) with the notarised translation into English.

We can process the order immediately to incorporate your new limited company, but will not send you corporate documents until we receive required due diligence documents.
