Changing Company Directors: FAQs
Everything you need to know about changing directors
Can’t find an answer?
You must file Form AP01 to appoint or TM01 to remove a director. Online Filings handles the entire process online, accurately and quickly.
You'll need your authentication code, plus the director’s name, date of birth, nationality, service and residential addresses. You’ll also need to verify your identity. This is done in 2 minutes from your mobile.
Yes. A director can resign at any time with written notice. We’ll file Form TM01 to make the resignation official at Companies House.
Not always. Directors manage the company’s affairs, while shareholders own it. One person can hold both roles, but it's not required.
Once filed, director changes are typically processed by Companies House within 1 to 2 working days. We usually submit within 1 hour.
It’s straightforward if procedures are followed. A board resolution may be required, then we file Form TM01 for you electronically.
Yes. You can appoint yourself using our online service. We prepare and file Form AP01 with Companies House on your behalf.
In most companies, a board resolution is recommended. We’ll let you know if formal approval is required based on your structure.
Companies House charges no fee for AP01 or TM01 forms. Our managed service includes expert support and electronic filing at a flat rate.
