Identity verification is a requirement introduced by the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. Companies House is moving to a system where all company directors must verify their identity, and this requirement applies to filings submitted through Online Filings.

Online Filings is an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) registered with Companies House and is supervised by HMRC for Anti-Money Laundering. Because of these obligations, we must verify the identity of all directors and all users before any filing can be submitted through our platform. This protects the integrity of the service and ensures that every filing we process is valid and compliant with UK law.

Directors using Online Filings must therefore complete identity verification before we can submit their filing. The process is fast, secure and takes less than two minutes on your smartphone. You can verify your identity using a UK driving licence, a UK passport or an international passport.

The Companies House Personal Code is an 11-character identifier you receive after completing identity verification with Companies House. From 18 November 2025, all directors, people with significant control (PSCs) and other key company officers must use this code when submitting filings such as confirmation statements and appointment forms.

You only need to verify your identity once. Your personal code will then apply to all your current and future roles and appointments. Keep your code secure, but you may share it with trusted professionals such as accountants, authorised agents or the Online Filings platform when they submit filings on your behalf.

When do I need to use my Personal Code?

• Directors: Use the code when filing the company's confirmation statement or when being appointed.
• PSCs who are not directors: Provide your code within 14 days of the start of your birth month.
