From 1 February 2026, Companies House will introduce changes to its fees for several key services. These adjustments are part of Companies House’s ongoing efforts to support transparency, strengthen enforcement powers, and maintain a trustworthy business environment in the UK.

Key changes for popular filings include:

• Digital incorporation filing fee: increasing from £50 to £100
• Digital confirmation statement filing fee: increasing from £34 to £50
• Digital voluntary strike-off fee: decreasing from £33 to £13

Companies House has explained that revenue from these fees funds the operation of company registers and supports enhanced powers under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency (ECCT) Act. These powers allow the agency to query and remove false or misleading information, strengthening the UK’s business environment and boosting confidence in legitimate companies.

For businesses using Elaga Accountancy and tax filing services, these changes mean that the statutory filing fees for company incorporation and confirmation statements will be higher from February 2026. Our team will continue to manage these filings efficiently and ensure that submissions are handled correctly and on time, giving you peace of mind.

Additional Fee Changes Include:

• Paper incorporation filing: £124
• Paper confirmation statement: £110
• Same-day digital incorporation: £156
• Registration of charges digitally: £14
• Administrative restoration (paper): £341

We will continue to monitor these changes and keep our clients updated. If you are planning any company formations, confirmations, or voluntary strike-offs in 2026, now is a good time to plan ahead.
