Buy Now Identity Verification Bundle™ (Professional Director Identity Verification) – Companies House Director Identity Verification for £40.
The Identity Verification Bundle™ provides a fast, secure and professionally managed route where a director change creates or reveals an applicable Companies House identity-verification task. First establish what has changed: a proposed appointment, an existing directorship, a resignation, amended particulars, an incomplete verification or a separate PSC position. The standard verification route uses secure Identity Document Validation Technology for eligible identity documents and may suit straightforward UK or overseas applicants. Coddan reviews the information and results produced through the process and determines whether it is satisfied that the applicable verification standard has been met. Identity verification does not itself appoint or remove a director, amend registered particulars or complete another corporate filing. Applicants requiring priority handling can compare our fast-track verification route.

For a fixed fee of £40, this package provides a simple online verification route with professional ACSP support where verification is applicable and the applicant's documents are suitable for the standard digital process. It may assist a proposed director, an existing director whose verification remains incomplete or a person continuing in another relevant role after a board change. A completed verification does not complete the associated director change. Companies House separately issues the Personal Code following successful verification, while appointment, resignation, correction and role-linkage actions remain distinct stages. If the person is already verified, the correct next job may instead be using the code or making the relevant corporate filing. Review our Personal Code guidance.

Buy Now Fast-Track Expert Director ID Verification™ (Priority Director Identity Verification Service) – Priority Companies House Director Identity Verification for £65.
The Fast-Track Expert Director ID Verification™ service provides priority handling when an identified director change is time-sensitive and an applicable identity-verification task still needs to be completed. It may suit a proposed appointment to an existing company, a planned board reorganisation, an urgent corporate transaction or another director-related filing with a genuine timetable. The priority verification route combines secure Identity Document Validation Technology with expedited professional review through Coddan's Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) framework. Where the required information is complete, the documents are eligible and no additional enquiries arise, most applications are processed by Coddan within one business day. This timeframe concerns Coddan's verification handling and does not guarantee Companies House processing, Personal Code issuance or completion of the separate director change.

For £65, eligible UK and overseas applicants receive priority handling and prompt contact if further suitable information is required. The service can support a person preparing for appointment or dealing with another time-sensitive director change, but the underlying corporate action must still follow its applicable procedure. Priority handling cannot guarantee a successful result or allow Coddan to control a technology provider or Companies House decision. Where the person is already verified, ordering another verification may be unnecessary; the remaining job may be code use, role linkage or submission of the relevant appointment or change filing. Applicants without a priority requirement can return to the standard £40 verification route or review our new-director verification and appointment guidance.

Buy Now Expert Director ID Verification™ (Professional Director Verification Service) – Two Companies House Director Identity Verification Pathways for £125.
The Expert Director ID Verification™ service provides two professionally managed pathways where a director change involves an applicable verification requirement but the suitable verification method is not immediately clear. The two-pathway verification route combines Fast-Track Digital Verification for eligible biometric documents with an alternative professionally supervised pathway where the standard digital process is unsuitable. It may assist an overseas or UK director joining a board, a person whose previous attempt did not complete, or an individual managing several director and PSC roles during a corporate change. Coddan considers the applicant's documents and circumstances, reviews the resulting verification information and makes its own satisfaction decision under the applicable standard. Where individual manual assessment is required, compare the manual verification package.

For £125, eligible applicants receive access to two verification pathways together with practical professional guidance concerning suitable identity evidence. This flexibility is useful where the applicant should not assume that the ordinary digital route will match the documents or circumstances involved. The package addresses the individual's verification task, not every legal and administrative consequence of the director change. Appointment, resignation, alteration of director particulars, Personal Code use and PSC updates remain separate actions where applicable. Companies House independently records the relevant corporate filing and issues the Personal Code following successful verification. Where the identified change concerns an existing director's registered information rather than their identity status, review our director-details update guidance before selecting a verification service.

Buy Now FlexiVerify Option™ (Expert Manual Director ID Verification Service) – Professional Manual Companies House Director Identity Verification for £220.
The FlexiVerify Option™ provides individual professional assessment where a director change involves an applicable verification task but the applicant cannot use the standard biometric pathway with the available documents or technology. The manual verification route is intended for eligible UK or overseas applicants whose evidence or circumstances require closer assessment under the applicable Companies House identity-verification standard. Depending on the prescribed route, verification may be conducted remotely or in person and may require suitable photographic identification and supporting evidence. Coddan assesses the information supplied and determines whether it can be satisfied that the required standard has been met. This is an authorised alternative verification route—not a back door, an override of an unsuccessful attempt or a means of directing the technology provider or Companies House to accept an application.

For £220, this package provides Coddan's highest level of individual support for an eligible applicant whose remaining verification task requires manual assessment. It may suit a proposed or existing director with non-standard documentation, an overseas participant or a person whose earlier digital attempt did not complete successfully. Payment does not guarantee that the supplied evidence will satisfy the verification standard. Following a successful outcome, Coddan performs its applicable notification responsibility, while Companies House separately issues the Personal Code. Any director appointment, resignation, correction, Confirmation Statement or PSC amendment must still be completed through the relevant corporate process. Applicants who may be suitable for either a digital or alternative pathway should first compare the two-pathway verification package or review our verification-support guidance.
