A certificate of person with significant control is a document used to confirm the identity of the person with significant control of a business entity. It also confirms the name of the firm, registered number, and registered office address.

A certificate of beneficial ownership is often used to prove that a particular individual is authorised to enact legally binding transactions on behalf of an entity.

Certificates of person with significant control are issued by the business formation agent. The person with significant control can produce the certificate as the evidence of his/her position within the firm to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceedings or official injury.

Your certificate will be printed in an elegant format, sealed and laminated. If you need to apply for such certificate, please pay for the delivery.

A company's issued share capital is usually at least £50,000, but can be far greater to take account of the number of shareholders and their individual control of the company.

£50,000 shares with a nominal value of £1.00 each are allotted at nominal value with no premium, the minimum consideration which must be paid to the company is one-quarter of the nominal value of each share, that is 0.25p per share, making a total minimum payment of £12,500 for 50,000 shares.

If you choose the standard share capital option, we shall proceed on the basis that there is only one class of ordinary shares of £1.00 each, and they are to be fully paid up.

The company may be registered with share capital that is greater than the amount it needs as initial working capital. After satisfying that need, it will therefore have a number of un-issued shares that the board can keep in reserve for future share issues.

When applying for the alternative share capital for your company, please make sure that the value per share is not less than £1.00. If you desire to have value per share less then £1.00 (for example 10p or 1p), you will need to apply for the paper filing for your company at additional charge. Please contact us for more details: orders@coddan.co.uk.

If you want to register a company with a non-standard share capital and issue special shares, it is often advisable to contact us before registering your company.
