FAQ

Common Questions

Is UK Ltd better than USA LLC?

Different strengths. USA LLC is cheaper ($275 vs £249 ≈ $315) and better for Amazon FBA. UK Ltd is faster (24–48 hours vs 7 days), more globally prestigious, and better for consulting/agencies. Choose based on your market.

Do I need to be a UK resident?

No. Companies House accepts non-resident directors. You just need to provide proof of identity and address. We've formed companies for entrepreneurs in 50+ countries.

What is a Confirmation Statement?

An annual update to Companies House confirming your company details are still correct. Takes 10 minutes online. Due every year on your anniversary date. We send reminders.

Will I owe UK taxes?

If you're not a UK resident and have no UK-sourced income, you generally owe zero UK tax. You must file an annual Confirmation Statement. Consult a tax professional for your specific situation.

Can I open a UK bank account?

Yes. Wise Business accepts non-resident Ltd companies. Most UK banks require a visit or UK address, so Wise is your best bet. We provide setup guides for both.

What's included in "Annual Accounts Overview"?

A guide explaining what annual accounts are, how to file them at Companies House, and common mistakes to avoid. For most non-resident companies, filing is simple. We include templates.
