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 for eligible applicants requiring Companies House director identity verification across the United Kingdom. The same applicable verification standard operates whether the person is based in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland; location alone does not determine whether verification is required or which method is suitable. The standard verification route uses secure Identity Document Validation Technology for eligible documents and may suit straightforward UK or overseas applicants. Coddan reviews the resulting information and determines whether it is satisfied that the applicable Companies House verification standard has been met. First establish the person's role, company or UK establishment, previous verification and remaining Companies House step. 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. It may suit a proposed or existing director whose eligible documents support the standard digital process, whether the relevant company is registered in England and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. The package completes an applicable verification task; it does not complete incorporation, appointment, role linkage, a Confirmation Statement or another corporate filing. Companies House separately issues the Personal Code following successful verification. An applicant who is already verified should establish whether only Personal Code use or another Companies House step remains before ordering again. Further guidance is available on our director Personal Code page.

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 where an applicable UK director identity-verification task is time-sensitive. It may suit a proposed appointment, company incorporation, corporate transaction or statutory filing with a genuine timetable, whether the applicant is based in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland or overseas. 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; it does not guarantee Companies House processing, issuance of the Personal Code or completion of any separate company or director filing.

For £65, eligible UK and overseas applicants receive priority handling and prompt contact if further suitable information is required. The service may be quick and convenient where verification is the actual remaining job and the applicant's documents support the digital route. Priority service does not create a different verification standard for a particular UK nation or allow Coddan to control a technology provider or Companies House decision. Applicants without an urgent timetable can return to the standard £40 verification route. Where the person is resident overseas, their residence does not automatically make the application complex; the suitable route depends on their role, documents and circumstances. Overseas applicants can review our overseas-director verification 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 an applicable UK identity-verification requirement exists 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 process where the standard digital pathway is unsuitable. It may assist a UK or overseas applicant whose documents, residence, role or connection with a company or UK establishment requires further consideration. Coddan establishes the relevant verification position, reviews the information produced through the selected process and makes its own satisfaction decision under the applicable Companies House standard. UK location is considered as part of the circumstances but does not create separate verification standards. Applicants requiring individual manual assessment can compare the manual verification package.

For £125, eligible applicants receive access to two verification pathways together with practical guidance concerning the identity evidence appropriate to their circumstances. The service offers useful flexibility to directors based throughout the UK and abroad without assuming that overseas residence or non-standard circumstances automatically require manual verification. The relevant person and legal role must be identified before a route is selected. A director of an ordinary UK company and a director connected with an overseas company registered in the UK should not be treated as the same category merely because both have an international element. Verification also remains separate from Personal Code use and corporate filings. Review our verification guidance by entity type.

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 an applicable UK director identity-verification task cannot be completed through the standard biometric pathway using the applicant's available documents or technology. The manual verification route is available to eligible UK and overseas applicants whose evidence or circumstances require closer assessment under the applicable Companies House 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 verification standard has been met. This is an authorised alternative—not a back door, a separate standard for one UK jurisdiction 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 where an eligible applicant's remaining verification task requires manual assessment. It may suit a person based in the UK or overseas whose available documents cannot be handled through the standard biometric route. Payment does not guarantee that the evidence will satisfy the verification standard. Following a successful outcome, Coddan performs its applicable notification responsibility, while Companies House separately issues the Personal Code. Director-role linkage, PSC-role linkage, incorporation, appointment, Confirmation Statement filing and corrections to company records remain separate processes. Applicants who may be suitable for either the digital or alternative pathway should first compare the two-pathway verification package or review our international verification guidance.
