Say goodbye to paperwork pile-ups and hello to a simple service to verify your director ID with Companies House. Coddan CPM Ltd streamlines the process with its fast-track service to verify your director ID with Companies House, whether you use the official GOV. UK One Login or work with a regulated private provider.UK One Login or work with a regulated private provider.UK One Login or working with a regulated private provider.UK One Login or working with a regulated private provider.UK One Login or working with a regulated private provider. Directors and PSCs can quickly link their verified identities using a Companies House personal code—no delays, just a secure, smooth path to compliance. This simple service to verify your director ID for Companies House isn’t just about ticking boxes; it’s designed to make life easier for businesses managing multiple individuals, all under the guidance of a UK-regulated agent. Once you’re verified, Companies House issues a unique code so that you can move forward with confidence. That’s a fast-track service to verify your director ID for Companies House that actually lives up to its name.
An enquiry creates no obligation to order. Describe the task and date; identity documents and confidential codes follow the separate instructed secure process.
Your manager is your email or telephone contact for instructions, questions and updates on your order and verification progress. This normal assistance comes with your verification service; it is separate from any agreed priority handling.
Tell us whether verification is outstanding, which director role or company task is involved and the relevant date. We help establish the remaining work and whether priority handling can be accepted. Accepted existing verification may mean you need code or filing help instead of another check.
Describe your available document types and issuing countries before ordering if suitability is unclear. Your manager explains the supported evidence process and sends instructions for your individual Credas checks. UK and overseas customers can ask about suitable assistance; each person completes their own required checks.
Accurate information, usable evidence and early clarification help the case progress. Coddan reviews the results and follows up outstanding points. Any agreed priority concerns Coddan-controlled work and confirmed availability; Companies House code issue and subsequent company filings have their own stages.
Your personal manager helps with instructions, missing information and questions about progress. If an invitation or check is interrupted, explain the last step reached and the difficulty. We review the position and explain the supported next action rather than asking you to diagnose the technical cause.
Coddan CPM Limited is registered with Companies House as an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP). Following your supported checks, our team reviews the evidence and seeks clarification where needed. When satisfied, Coddan submits ACSP confirmation; Companies House issues your personal code.
Coddan CPM Limited is HMRC-supervised as a Trust or Company Service Provider. AML customer checks are separate from Companies House verification. You can also arrange appropriate formation or existing-company administration through Coddan, with the selected work and charges agreed separately. Verification is available without buying those services.
Companies House issues the personal code to the verified individual. Using it for director or PSC roles and completing an appointment, incorporation or filing are separate actions. Tell Coddan what remains: we can explain suitable separately instructed company work, including for companies formed elsewhere. A written service agreement is available to identify the selected work and charges.
Already verified? You do not normally need another check unless Companies House tells you to verify again. If all applicable steps are complete, no further verification action may be needed. The free official Companies House verification route remains available where suitable.
£40.00+VATIdentityGuard Pro™ Recommended for 1
package
Buy Now
For a fixed fee of £40, this package provides a simple online verification process with professional ACSP support. It may suit an eligible proposed or existing director whose documents support the standard digital pathway and who does not require priority handling. The package covers the identity-verification task only; it does not include company formation, director appointment, Personal Code use or another corporate filing. Following successful verification, Coddan performs its applicable notification responsibility, while Companies House separately issues the Personal Code. Applicants already verified should establish whether another identity check is necessary before ordering. Where the remaining job concerns code use or role linkage, consult our director Personal Code guidance. |
£65.00+VATRapidVerify Pro™ Recommended for 2
package
Buy Now
For £65, eligible UK and overseas applicants receive priority review and prompt contact where further suitable information is required. The service is available independently and does not require the company to purchase any additional Coddan service. Fast-track handling cannot make unsuitable evidence acceptable or allow Coddan to control the technology provider or Companies House decision. The free GOV.UK One Login route also remains available for eligible applicants. Where urgency does not apply, the applicant can return to the standard £40 standalone route. Those who need help determining whether priority handling matches the task can review our Companies House verification-support guidance. |
£125.00+VATVerifyFlex Solutions™ Recommended for 3
package
Buy Now
For £125, eligible applicants receive access to two verification pathways and practical guidance concerning suitable identity evidence. The package offers additional flexibility while remaining a defined standalone identity-verification service. An incomplete digital attempt does not automatically mean that manual verification is required or that another provider can overturn the earlier outcome. Coddan may conduct its own authorised ACSP process where suitable, but it cannot provide a back-door route or guarantee that the evidence will pass. Identity verification remains separate from AML, KYC and customer due diligence, as well as Personal Code use and later corporate filings. Applicants wanting a guided comparison can review our guided verification pathway. |
£220.00+VATFlexiVerify Option™ Recommended for 4
package
Buy Now
For £220, this package provides Coddan's highest level of individual verification support and manual assessment. It may suit an eligible applicant with non-standard documents, technology difficulties or an earlier digital attempt that did not complete. Payment does not guarantee that the evidence will satisfy the Companies House identity-verification standard. This is an authorised alternative—not a back door, an appeal against another process or a method of directing the technology provider or Companies House to approve an application. Following a successful outcome, Coddan performs its applicable notification responsibility, while Companies House separately issues the Personal Code. Applicants who may suit either a digital or alternative process should first compare the two-pathway standalone package or consult our trusted online-verification guidance. |
If you need outstanding director identity verification before an appointment, incorporation or filing, Coddan helps establish the work needed and whether priority handling can be accepted. You describe the task, the stage reached and the relevant date; we explain suitable checks, preparation and charges. Verification is available independently of company formation or filing.
Choose professional instructions, supported Credas checks and Coddan’s review. Normal personal-manager assistance by email and telephone comes with every verification order, whether or not priority handling is selected.
Tell us what has already been completed and when the next action is needed. Coddan assesses the remaining work and any suitable priority arrangement; you do not need to identify the technical or legal cause yourself.
GOV.UK One Login provides free Companies House verification. Depending on eligibility, documents and answers, it may offer the app, security questions or a Post Office route. A Post Office visit requires online preparation first. Overseas residence alone does not rule out the official route.
Choose the help that suits the task. Both routes must meet the applicable requirements. Accepted existing verification may mean that only code or role-related action remains; if everything required is complete, no further verification purchase is needed. An initial enquiry creates no obligation to order. Identity documents and confidential codes follow the instructed secure process, not ordinary enquiry email.
Priority scope, availability and charges are confirmed before you decide whether to order. Standard verification remains available through the service and ordering page.
Tell your personal manager whether you have started the checks, completed verification or received a Companies House personal code. Describe the appointment, filing or other task and any relevant date. We help establish what remains before recommending another check or priority handling.
If you have not completed verification, describe your available document types, issuing countries and any access difficulty. Coddan explains the supported evidence and individual checks needed before assessing priority availability.
Accepted verification does not normally need repeating unless Companies House tells you to verify again. If your code is missing or a role submission remains, ask about that task rather than automatically purchasing another check.
Describe whether the invitation arrived, the last step reached and any message or difficulty. Coddan reviews the position and explains the supported next step. An interrupted check does not automatically require a new paid verification.
Where a substantive failed-attempt diagnosis is required, use the dedicated guidance for resolving identity-verification issues or ask your manager to help identify the appropriate next route.
Accurate information, suitable evidence and early clarification help the work progress. Your manager explains the required steps and keeps you informed, while Coddan reviews the results and outstanding questions. Tell us the company task and date so we can assess the relevant work and any suitable priority arrangement.
We confirm the selected work, readiness requirements, availability and charges before you order priority handling. It concerns Coddan’s own work; Companies House code issue and separate company filings remain outside that priority arrangement. Normal manager assistance does not require a priority purchase.
For the individual being verified, prepare accurate full and former names, date of birth, home address, the previous 12 months’ address history and an email address they can access. Coddan also uses the contact details needed to set up the case and send instructions. Provide sensitive information only through the instructed process.
Check the details against the evidence and tell your manager about any name or address difference. If someone else arranges the order, identify the individual being checked and the permitted order contact separately.
Tell us the document type and issuing country if suitability is unclear. Coddan explains the evidence supported by its actual service. Individual document and liveness checks remain necessary; manager help does not replace them.
Give the relevant date, company name or number where available, and the stage already reached. If you are arranging work for another person, explain your role; payment or coordination alone does not authorise access to their evidence, code or account.
Personal help with preparation and checks. Your manager assists by email or telephone with instructions, missing information, an unclear invitation or an interrupted step. Describe the difficulty without sending identity images or confidential codes in ordinary email. We explain the supported next action; ask before starting another check so any additional work and charge can be clarified.
The service combines individual checks with Coddan’s professional review and clarification. Completing a scan is one stage: Coddan must be satisfied that the applicable Companies House standard has been met before submitting its ACSP confirmation.
Coddan reviews the order, creates the Credas case and sends the individual an email/SMS invitation and instructions. Check an unexpected or unclear invitation with your manager before providing evidence.
The individual follows the invitation and completes the supported document and liveness checks. An organiser, payer or intermediary may coordinate agreed arrangements but cannot complete those personal checks for someone else.
Coddan reviews the results, seeks clarification where needed and manually submits its ACSP verification confirmation through its Companies House account when satisfied. Technology results support that professional decision.
Companies House issues the personal code to the individual’s supplied email address. An order receipt or completed Credas check alone is not that outcome. Code receipt and any remaining role submission or company filing are separate.
Coddan CPM Limited is registered with Companies House as an ACSP. This registration supports the confirmation work described above; it is not government endorsement or a guarantee of the outcome. Companies House makes its own code and filing decisions. If your code email has not arrived after verification through Coddan, contact your manager to check the email address supplied and explain the next step.
The Companies House personal code belongs to the verified individual. It is different from the company authentication code used to authorise relevant electronic filings. Keep code receipt, each required director or PSC submission and the underlying company filing distinct.
Companies House issues this individual code after successful verification. The same code is normally used for relevant roles and companies; holding director and PSC roles does not automatically require two verification purchases.
For a new company or appointment, the code is supplied in the relevant incorporation or appointment filing. An existing director with an outstanding transitional requirement supplies it through the applicable confirmation statement for each company. Check what is already complete; verification is not an annual repeat check.
An individual PSC supplies the code separately using the appropriate PSC verification-details route, even if also a director. New and existing PSCs have different submission periods. Check the individual’s applicable dates; the director submission alone does not complete the PSC requirement.
Company authentication code: this company-level credential authorises relevant electronic filings; it does not verify a director or PSC. For example, an appointment or confirmation statement may require the individual’s personal code and company filing credentials for different purposes, depending on the route. The PSC service has its own access requirements. Neither code replaces the other, the company number, a One Login password or an agent’s credentials.
Use the official personal-code guidance and company authentication-code guidance for access and management, and role-specific submission guidance for applicable dates. Tell your manager the task and stage reached; confidential codes follow the appropriate authorised secure arrangements.
After successful verification, tell Coddan what company work remains. Suitable formation or existing-company administration can be separately instructed, including for a company formed elsewhere. We confirm the work, customer approvals, filing authority and charges separately; verification itself does not complete those tasks.
A director appointment or incorporation remains a separate Companies House process where applicable.
An applicable Confirmation Statement filing remains a separate filing responsibility even where directors have completed identity verification.
Correction of personal or company information, restoration and other corporate events remain separate where they genuinely apply.
If identity verification, the applicable Personal Code stage and required role linkage are complete, there may be no further identity-verification task.
AML/KYC customer due diligence: Coddan checks its customer, relevant ownership or control and the purpose of the instructed work under its AML procedures. This is more than an identity-document scan and does not itself produce a Companies House personal code. Coddan CPM Limited’s HMRC supervision as a Trust or Company Service Provider is distinct from its Companies House ACSP registration.
Companies House identity verification: the individual completes the supported checks; Coddan reviews and submits ACSP confirmation when satisfied; Companies House issues the code. Some information may overlap, but completing one process does not automatically complete the other. Tell your manager which checks are already complete so we can establish what remains, without assuming duplicate paid checks or automatic evidence reuse.
Choose the route for the work still needed. Ask about priority if outstanding verification is time-sensitive, use standard ordering for a suitable published service, or obtain help with an existing code or company task. Coddan confirms any proposed priority work and charges before you decide.
Each verification package covers one individual director or PSC. Count people, rather than roles or companies, and tell us about accepted existing verification before ordering. Your selected service includes normal personal-manager instructions, questions and progress assistance; priority handling and later company work have their own agreed scope.
For a time-sensitive enquiry, we confirm suitable work, availability and charges before you order. For a published standard service, review the selected package and any optional services on the ordering route. A base-package price is not the final charge for an order with selected extras. Written service agreements are available to identify the selected work and charges. No verification or external-deadline outcome is guaranteed.
If identity verification is already complete: Nothing Further Required may be the correct identity-verification outcome, subject to any remaining Personal Code, role-linkage or corporate-event obligation.
If verification remains incomplete and the matter is genuinely time-sensitive: describe the task and date through the enquiry below so Coddan can assess suitable handling. The free GOV.UK One Login route remains a legitimate alternative.
If the remaining professional job is a substantive failed-attempt diagnosis, use the guidance for resolving identity-verification issues. If a company filing or other event remains, tell Coddan what you want to complete so we can explain the appropriate separately instructed work. You can return for that task later without buying verification again merely because another company service is needed.
Discounted quotations are available for multi-person orders and professional intermediaries arranging checks for clients. Email info@coddan.co.uk before ordering with the organisation’s name and legal structure, the number of distinct people still requiring verification, relevant dates and coordination needs. Intermediaries should also give their firm’s name and say whether one or several client organisations are involved.
We confirm suitable work, communication arrangements and discounted charges before you decide whether to order; an enquiry creates no obligation. Each individual completes their own checks. Coordination does not itself authorise access to their evidence, codes or accounts; these follow the appropriate secure process.
Coddan’s priority-processing target is one business day once the supported route is suitable, all required information and individual checks are complete, and no further enquiries or verification issues remain. Ask us to confirm availability and the selected work before ordering. Companies House personal-code delivery and later company filings are separate and are not guaranteed by this target.
Accepted verification does not normally need repeating unless Companies House tells you to verify again. If Coddan verified you and your code email has not arrived, ask your manager to check the email address supplied and explain the next step. Tell us which verification, code or role stage remains before ordering another check. If all applicable steps are complete, no further verification action may be needed.
Not automatically. Verification coverage is per person, rather than per role or company. The same Companies House personal code is normally used for relevant roles, but director and PSC code submissions remain separate. Check the official role-specific guidance for the applicable action and date; buying verification does not itself complete those submissions.
Yes. GOV.UK One Login verification remains a legitimate free option. Depending on eligibility, documents and answers, the service may offer an app, security questions or a Post Office route. A Post Office visit requires online preparation first. Coddan’s paid service provides its supported checks, professional review and personal-manager assistance; purchasing it is optional.
The individual being verified must complete the applicable personal document and liveness checks. Coddan sets up the supported Credas case, provides instructions, reviews the results and clarifies outstanding information. Normal email/telephone personal-manager assistance is included with every verification order, separately from paid priority handling. Coddan submits ACSP confirmation when satisfied; Companies House issues the personal code.
Ask before ordering if suitability is unclear. Describe the document type, issuing country, the stage reached and any access difficulty. Overseas residence alone does not establish complexity or rule out the official route. Coddan confirms the evidence supported for the individual case and explains the appropriate next step. Identity-document images and confidential codes follow the instructed secure process, not ordinary enquiry email.
Yes. Verification is available as a standalone service, including for a company formed elsewhere. Company formation, role-linkage submissions, appointments, confirmation statements and continuing company support are separately instructed where needed. Tell Coddan what remains so we can explain the appropriate work and charges without automatically selling another verification.
Yes. Discounted quotations are available for multi-person orders and professional intermediaries. Email info@coddan.co.uk with the organisation’s name and legal structure, the number of distinct people still needing verification, relevant dates and coordination needs. Intermediaries should identify their firm and whether one or several client organisations are involved. An enquiry creates no obligation. Each person completes their own checks; coordination alone does not authorise access to evidence, codes or accounts.
