Obtain certified Companies House records for your UK limited liability partnership, with document selection guided by the intended purpose and recipient's requirements.

Certified LLP Registry Documents

If you need official registry evidence for a UK limited liability partnership, identify the relevant Companies House filings, records or extracts and establish what the receiving organisation requires before requesting certification.

Identify the limited liability partnership and the registry information you need, using the partnership's registered name and other available identifying details.

Establish which filing, record, certificate or extract is required for your intended purpose, such as providing evidence of registered information to a bank, professional adviser or other organisation.

Check the receiving organisation's requirements to determine whether it needs a certified registry document, a particular filing, a specified record or another form of documentary evidence.

Confirm the relevant document details and the information that needs to be evidenced, so the request can be directed towards the appropriate Companies House record or filing.

Coddan can assist with identifying the appropriate document service and arranging certified registry filings and extracts in line with the confirmed requirement and available service options.

If you know which registry document you need, provide its details when making your enquiry; if you are unsure, ask Coddan to help identify the appropriate document route.

Where certified registry documents are intended for use outside the United Kingdom, check whether the recipient requires any additional certification, apostille or legalisation; these are separate requirements and should not be assumed.

Fees and processing times depend on the document and service required. Any applicable Companies House charges and additional professional or third-party costs should be confirmed for the requested service before proceeding.

A structured document request is designed to reduce avoidable administrative delays and unnecessary requests by clarifying the required record and its intended use at the outset. Companies House and other relevant organisations retain control of their own processing and decisions.

Enquire About Certified LLP Registry Documents

The appropriate certified registry document depends on the information you need to evidence and the receiving organisation's requirements; not every request requires the same filing or extract. Provide the LLP's details, the document required and its intended use so that the appropriate service can be identified.

Certified Copies of LLP and Limited-Partnership Filings

A certified copy confirms a particular document held by Companies House. It is different from a download of a public filing and from a certificate stating selected registration facts. Start with the date and purpose of the request: a recipient may need the original LLP incorporation filing, an LLP name change, the LP registration application or a later partnership change. A copy of the wrong filing can be formally certified and still fail to answer the question.

Tell us what you need

Which filing does the recipient need?

Coddan can identify the filing and check whether Companies House will supply the required certified document for that LLP, ordinary limited partnership or Scottish limited partnership. We order it once availability and format have been confirmed. We check the entity number and filing history, the exact document, the version on the register and whether a subsequent filing changed the position. For private agreements, member decisions or general-partner instructions, the Companies House register may not hold the document at all. Those records require a different source and a different form of verification.

If the copy is for use overseas, provide the recipient's requirements before ordering. The receiving authority may need an original Companies House official's signature for FCDO legalisation, a notarial act, translation or no further authentication. Coddan confirms the appropriate paper or other available form and quotes separately for any additional steps. A certified copy proves that the copied material is what the registrar holds; it does not prove that every statement in the filing remains current or that a disputed private right is valid.

Send the partnership name and number, the filing date or description, the receiving institution and its instructions. Coddan will tell you what can be ordered and what further evidence, if any, is needed.

When a certified copy is useful

A receiving institution may ask to see a specific historical filing rather than general proof that the partnership exists. Give the filing date and ask whether it needs a registrar-certified copy, a current record, or both. For an LLP, a later member or address filing may be more relevant than its incorporation application. For an LP or SLP, the available filing history and copy service must be checked against that partnership’s registration regime.

A certified copy authenticates the document selected for copying. If the information has since changed, send the recipient the later record as well rather than presenting the old filing as a current statement.

What if the document is not available online?

Some filing histories are incomplete or older documents are not immediately visible. Give Coddan the registered number, date and description so availability can be checked with Companies House before offering a certified-copy service. A copy of an LP or SLP application, if available, should not be represented as the certificate of registration. If the recipient needs an original signature for legalisation, the ordering route and document format must be confirmed.

Ask Coddan about this document

Send the partnership name and registration number, the document or fact requested, the recipient’s written instructions, the country of use and any deadline. We will review the request and explain what can be supplied and what remains to be confirmed before quoting.
