Certificate of Good Standing - Confirmation of the company's status from Companies House
If a business is registered or chartered by a government agency like Companies House, it is considered to be in good standing if it has submitted and kept up-to-date all necessary paperwork and paid any required fees. A certificate of good standing can be obtained from Companies House as proof of a company's good standing status. This certificate may be required by banks when opening a company bank account or by foreign countries when registering as a foreign corporation.
For a limited by shares company, the certificate will include the following information: (a) Date of Incorporation, (b) List of Directors, (c) Registered Office Address & (d) States that the company is up to date with its filing requirements.
Why Would I Need a Certificate of Good Standing?
Certificates of Good Standing are most commonly required by companies who are conducting business abroad (outside of the United Kingdom) or are looking to do so.
The Certificate will often be requested by various third parties as part of the due diligence process to prove the company’s existence and standing. This helps when you open a bank account or try to obtain finance. By keeping your company in good standing you protect the directors from any personal liability for actions of the company.
