Professional Statutory Register Update for UK Companies — Stay Compliant, Accurate & Protected

Every UK company is legally required to maintain accurate and up-to-date statutory records. These records form the backbone of your corporate identity, governance structure, shareholder information, and compliance obligations.

However, many companies — especially fast-growing startups and SMEs — discover that their records are incomplete, outdated, inconsistent, or incorrectly filed. This is extremely common and often unintentional, but it creates significant risks:

• fines and penalties
• legal disputes
• shareholder conflicts
• delays in funding rounds
• obstacles during audits
• challenges with banks or investors
• Companies House scrutiny
• non-compliance with Companies Act 2006

At Audit Consulting Group (ACG), we specialise in bringing your corporate records up to date quickly, professionally, and in full compliance with UK law.

Whether you need minor corrections, complete reconstruction, or a full review of all statutory records, our experts ensure everything is accurate, aligned, and legally secure.

Why Accurate Company Records Are Critical

Most businesses don’t realise how essential accurate corporate records really are until a problem appears. These documents are inspected by:

• Companies House
• HMRC
• Investors
• Banks
• Auditors
• Solicitors during acquisitions
• Potential partners
• Shareholders

Outdated or incorrect records can instantly raise red flags.

The Following Records Must Always Be Up-to-Date:

✔ Register of Members (Shareholders)

Required as legal proof of ownership.

✔ Register of Directors

Must reflect current appointments and resignations accurately.

✔ Register of People with Significant Control (PSC)

Hugely important for transparency laws.

✔ Registered Office address

Essential for receiving legal notifications.

✔ Share allotment & transfer records

Proof of changes in ownership.

✔ Director service addresses

Must be updated promptly.

✔ Company officers’ information

Full legal responsibility.

✔ Accounting & compliance deadlines

To avoid penalties.

✔ Confirmation Statement data

Must match internal records.

✔ Articles of Association updates

When changes occur.

Without consistent, accurate records, a business risks compliance failures and legal exposure.
