Ask what help you need
Keep identity documents and confidential codes out of an initial email and follow the instructed secure process.
Check each director’s position before ordering. Accepted verification may leave only code receipt, director-role linkage or the company filing. Several appointments do not automatically mean several checks. If all applicable identity steps are complete, no further verification action may be needed.
Tell Coddan who needs verification, what is already complete and any relevant filing date. If evidence suitability is unclear, describe the document type and issuing country first. Your manager explains the supported requirements; UK or overseas residence alone does not determine complexity.
Coddan sets up the Credas case and provides participation instructions. The individual supplies the requested information and personally completes the supported checks. Accurate details and suitable evidence give the review a clear starting point; an organiser or payer cannot complete another person’s checks.
Describe the step reached, any message or a known name or record difference. Your manager clarifies the supported next action and outstanding information. Normal assistance is distinct from paid priority or extended consultation; a difficulty does not automatically require another verification purchase.
Coddan reviews the Credas results and seeks clarification where needed. When satisfied that the Companies House identity-verification standard has been met, Coddan submits its ACSP confirmation. Companies House issues the Personal Code to the individual; completing the customer checks alone is not the final stage.
Verification can be purchased separately from company filing. Each package covers one individual director or PSC; holding both roles does not automatically require two purchases. Filing preparation and submission need their own instruction, authority and charges. You can retain your existing filing provider.
Already verified? Do not verify again unless Companies House tells you to. Your Personal Code belongs to you and can be used for relevant appointments. Supply it through the applicable director process where that requirement remains; PSC submissions are separate. Code receipt does not automatically link roles or file the statement. Completed identity work does not remove the company’s filing obligation.
See the director-code steps below. Need the company filing too? Review Coddan’s separately instructed Confirmation Statement service.
Free official verification remains available. Use GOV.UK One Login, which identifies the available method and its requirements from your answers.
Pre-order enquiries to info@coddan.co.uk create no obligation. Describe the situation and relevant date.
£40.00+VATIdentityGuard Pro™ Recommended for 1
package
Buy Now
For a fixed fee of £40, this package provides a simple online verification route with professional ACSP support where verification genuinely remains outstanding. The package does not include preparation or filing of the company's Confirmation Statement. Following successful verification, Companies House separately issues the director's Personal Code. An existing director may then need to use that code through the applicable Confirmation Statement process to connect the verified identity with the appointment. A person who is both a director and PSC must treat the two role requirements separately. Where verification, code issuance and applicable role linkage are already complete, Nothing Further Required may apply to identity verification even though the company must still file its Confirmation Statement. Review our Personal Code guidance. |
£65.00+VATRapidVerify Pro™ Recommended for 2
package
Buy Now
For £65, eligible UK and overseas applicants receive priority verification handling and prompt contact if further suitable information is required. This service may provide a quick and convenient route where verification is the actual outstanding task and the Confirmation Statement timetable is approaching. Priority processing cannot replace the director's Personal Code, perform role linkage or file the Confirmation Statement. It also cannot guarantee a successful verification result or control the timing of a Companies House decision. Applicants without a priority requirement can return to the standard £40 verification route. Where an annual filing has exposed several director, PSC or record issues, review our director changes and separate-action guidance before selecting a service. |
£125.00+VATVerifyFlex Solutions™ Recommended for 3
package
Buy Now
For £125, eligible applicants receive access to two verification pathways and practical professional guidance concerning the identity evidence appropriate to their circumstances. This package does not combine verification, Personal Code issuance, director-role linkage, PSC-role linkage and Confirmation Statement filing into one automatic process. Companies House separately issues the Personal Code following successful verification. A director with appointments in several companies ordinarily uses the same personal code for each applicable role rather than repeating verification merely because several companies are involved. If the individual is also a PSC, the PSC requirement must be addressed separately. Applicants who need help identifying which verification stage remains can review our Companies House verification-support guidance. |
£220.00+VATFlexiVerify Option™ Recommended for 4
package
Buy Now
For £220, this package provides Coddan's highest level of individual support for an eligible director whose outstanding verification task requires manual assessment. Payment does not guarantee that the supplied evidence will satisfy the verification standard or that the company's Confirmation Statement will be accepted. Following a successful verification outcome, Coddan performs its applicable notification responsibility, while Companies House separately issues the Personal Code. Use of the code for a director role, any separate PSC requirement, correction of company information and submission of the Confirmation Statement remain distinct steps. Applicants whose documents may support either a digital or alternative process should first compare the two-pathway verification package. Further explanation is available in our Companies House Personal Code guide. |
Confirmation Statement position
Check which company is filing, its confirmation date and filing deadline, and what has already been completed for each current director. If you are arranging the work for a company or client, make that relationship clear; the organiser, payer, individual being verified and authorised filer may be different people.
For each relevant director, identify whether checks are still needed, the Personal Code is missing, the code must be provided for the appointment, or a record needs attention. Accepted verification is not repeated simply because the company is filing another statement.
Clear service choices, suitable preparation and manager instructions help you address the actual requirement. Coddan reviews the supported checks and explains any clarification needed. This keeps the work focused on the individual who needs verification, while code use and the company filing remain separate tasks.
Have the company name and number, confirmation date, filing deadline and current directors’ verification positions available. Explain what has already been filed or completed. A later statement does not reset an overdue verification or filing requirement.
If verification remains, describe the available document type and issuing country. Suitable evidence depends on the route, checking method and Coddan’s supported service. Coddan gives instructions, reviews results and seeks clarification; possession of a document or a completed scan alone does not establish acceptance.
Each director has their own Companies House identity and Personal Code. One director cannot use another director’s code. The same individual Personal Code can, however, be used for the individual’s applicable appointments across more than one company.
Sorting out director ID verification online shouldn’t be a headache. Coddan CPM offers two clear routes to verify and stay compliant. Level 1 uses your biometric passport or photocard driving licence paired with biometric liveness scanning — quick, digital, and straightforward. Prefer to verify a new director ID for Companies House manually? Level 2 has you covered, with non-biometric documents and address proofs reviewed by a registered ACSP compliance officer. The real win? One verification satisfies identity requirements across all your current and future directorships, so you don’t need to repeat the process each time. Whether you’re onboarding a new director or getting yourself verified, Coddan CPM keeps everything clean, compliant, and hassle-free.
If a director has not completed the applicable identity-verification requirement, the free GOV.UK One Login route remains a legitimate option where available.
Use the official Companies House identity-verification guidance
Successful verification and receipt or retrieval of the Personal Code are separate stages. Companies House issues the code; it is not created by the company or its filing provider.
The director may have completed verification and received the code while the relevant company appointment still requires the code to be provided through the applicable Confirmation Statement process.
If the director’s verified identity is already connected to the relevant appointment and no discrepancy remains, do not begin another identity-verification attempt. In most cases, the individual verifies only once and must not verify again unless Companies House tells them to.
Free direct route: GOV.UK One Login uses your answers to identify the available method: an app, online security questions, or photo-ID details entered online before a participating Post Office visit. Each method has its own requirements; overseas residence does not automatically exclude it.
Coddan’s standalone service: purchase suitable verification without buying company formation or filing, or transferring your existing services. The selected per-person service provides case setup, instructions, supported checks, professional review and normal personal-manager help.
Coddan reviews your order, creates the Credas case and sends the invitation. The individual supplies the requested information and personally completes the supported checks, including the required liveness check. Coddan reviews the results, clarifies outstanding information and submits its ACSP confirmation when satisfied that the Companies House standard has been met. Companies House issues the Personal Code to the individual; finishing the checks is not completion of every stage.
KYC/AML customer checks: Coddan obtains and reviews customer information and relevant ownership/control information for due diligence on the instructed work. These checks do not themselves produce a Companies House Personal Code.
Companies House identity verification: the individual completes the supported identity checks; Coddan reviews and confirms verification when satisfied, and Companies House issues the code. A Personal Code does not itself complete all due diligence for a new instruction. Evidence may overlap, but reuse depends on suitability and the applicable procedure. Tell your manager which checks are already complete; different purposes do not automatically mean two verification purchases. ACSP registration and AML supervision remain separate requirements.
View verification services, charges and ordering. Check the selected scope and total payable before ordering. Any further work or charges are confirmed before proceeding. For pre-order suitability help, email info@coddan.co.uk with the role, verification position, available document type and issuing country, difficulty and relevant date. An enquiry creates no obligation. Identity documents and confidential codes follow the instructed secure process, not an ordinary initial email.
See when optional director identity-verification support may be useful
An existing director with an outstanding transitional requirement provides their Personal Code through the relevant company’s confirmation statement under the transition beginning 18 November 2025. Check what was already due or submitted for each appointment; do not defer an overdue requirement to a later statement. The individual supplies the code securely to the person authorised to file.
A director of more than one company uses the same Personal Code for each applicable appointment. Holding several directorships does not ordinarily require the individual to repeat identity verification simply because another company is involved.
Companies House issues this 11-character code after successful verification. It is used for the individual’s applicable director and PSC requirements, with separate submissions. Following ACSP verification, it is emailed to the address supplied for the individual. Contact the verifying ACSP if the code has not arrived.
This 6-character alphanumeric code authorises relevant electronic company filings. It does not verify a director or PSC. Some filings need both codes for different purposes, depending on the route; neither replaces the other. Neither is the company number, a One Login password or the agent’s presenter credentials.
Keep both codes secure and establish the actual remaining requirement. Do not assume annual re-verification or another code submission after the appointment requirement is complete. A missing or mismatched code requires the appropriate receipt, access or record check. Follow the official company authentication code guidance for requesting or managing that separate company code.
A person who is both a director and a person with significant control (PSC) holds two separate Companies House roles. Completion of the director requirement does not automatically complete the PSC requirement.
For an existing director’s outstanding transitional requirement, provide the code through the relevant company confirmation statement. A new director’s code is provided with incorporation or appointment as applicable; recognise an appointment already confirmed. The authorised filer prepares and submits the company filing. Code receipt alone does not complete it.
An individual PSC’s code is submitted separately. If you became a PSC after 18 November 2025, provide it when first added to the register or within 14 days of being added. For an existing PSC who also directs the same company, the applicable transitional 14-day period starts the day after the confirmation statement date; early filing does not move it. Other existing PSCs must check their own period on the register. Use the official timing guidance and PSC submission service below.
Check current role-dependent Companies House guidance. Provide identity verification details for a PSC.
A person who is both director and PSC normally uses the same Personal Code, with separate required submissions. A linkage difficulty does not automatically mean verification failed or another purchase is needed. Tell Coddan the role, company and stage reached so the supported next step can be explained.
When a Personal Code or director linkage does not reconcile, identify which source contains the inaccurate information. Do not change every record or repeat identity verification simply because two records do not agree.
Check the code, the Companies House account or the relevant email/access position before assuming that verification must be repeated.
Where a date of birth, name or other registered director particular is incorrect, use the process applicable to the responsible Companies House record rather than altering accurate identity evidence to match an error.
If the Confirmation Statement contains inaccurate company information, correct the responsible company record through the applicable filing process.
Where registered director particulars are responsible for the mismatch, use the director-details correction guidance. Where identity verification or code-to-record linkage remains unresolved, use the identity-verification problem guidance.
The Confirmation Statement remains a company filing. Identity verification does not itself review the company’s registered information, correct the company record, prepare the Confirmation Statement, submit it or guarantee filing acceptance.
Review the company’s registered information before confirming it is correct. Some changes, including relevant director and PSC changes, require their own notification; other information can be updated through the statement. Use the applicable filing process rather than treating verification as a correction to company records.
For an outstanding director-verification requirement, check that each relevant director is verified and that the required Personal Code and confirmation can be supplied through the applicable statement. Confirm what has already been submitted; a completed identity check does not itself submit the company filing.
Confirm that every relevant director’s identity-verification and Personal Code position is ready for the applicable filing process.
Keep your existing accountant, company secretary or other filing provider if you wish. If you also need Coddan to prepare or submit the statement, review our Confirmation Statement filing service. That work needs its own instruction, authority, scope and charges; it is not automatically included in verification.
Choose the next action that matches what remains. Verification already accepted should lead to code help, an outstanding role submission, separate company work or no further verification action.
Use the free official service where suitable, or choose an appropriate Coddan-supported service through the verification services and ordering link above. A quotation enquiry is optional for suitable published services; support being available does not mean it is required.
If the code has not arrived or is unclear, use the Personal Code receipt guidance. If a code is available but has not been used for the director role, follow the separate use guidance below.
Use the director-code steps and separate PSC guidance above, or the record-correction destination that matches the problem. A person arranging the work must have the necessary authority; payment alone does not permit access to another person’s evidence, code or account.
Prepare or file the Confirmation Statement as a separate company event, or proceed to another corporate event if that is the actual outstanding job.
Each verification package covers one individual director or PSC. Count people who still need verification, not appointments or roles. Accepted verification is recognised; someone holding both roles does not automatically need two purchases. Discounted quotations are available for multi-person orders and professional intermediaries arranging checks for clients.
Before ordering, email info@coddan.co.uk with the organisation’s name and legal structure, number of distinct individuals, relevant dates and coordination needs. Intermediaries should also give their firm’s name and whether one or several client organisations are involved. Coddan confirms suitable work and discounted charges before you decide; an enquiry creates no obligation. Each individual still completes their own checks, and permitted communication contacts must be agreed.
