Companies House offices to remain closed post-pandemic

Companies House has announced that its London office and counter services in Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff will not be re-opening, after the sites were closed in 2020 in response to the pandemic. 

Companies House has instead urged customers to continue submitting their documents online and use its “enhanced” digital offering. 

In a statement, it said: “Working with customers, we’ve put new ways in place to submit documents, enhancing our digital offering and reducing reliance on public counters.

“As we continue to transform our services to provide a truly modern and digital service, it’s been decided that our public counters will not re-open.”

It added: “This means that the Companies House office in London, which has been closed since March 2020, will also not be re-opening.”
