Turnaround
We complete this work in 2 days of working time. The clock starts when we have your records, not when you pay. Before that we need identity verification, a signed engagement letter and, where you are switching, professional clearance from your previous accountant.
What triggers a re-quote
If any of these apply, we tell you before starting and quote the difference. You can accept it, or take a full refund.
- Names requiring Secretary of State or regulator approval
- A change that also requires amended articles
- Objections raised under the company names rules
