Companies House rules require every limited company to have an ‘appropriate’ registered office address where post can actually be delivered and receipt acknowledged by someone acting for the company since 2024.
A PO Box no longer qualifies. Replace it with a default address or you have just 28 days to sort out a proper alternative before facing being struck off.
It's a detail a lot of small business owners and sole traders miss until it catches them out.
BrigHub's registered business address service meets the requirement, keeps your home address off public record, and comes with 24/7 access to collect post.
From £15 a month, no contract.
