A professional formation service

UK Company Registration Service for Indian Residents

Seven Oak Prestige provides UK company formation support for founders based in India who want professional assistance rather than managing the Companies House process alone.

Depending on the package selected, support can include incorporation, UK Registered Office and Director Service Address services, Companies House identity-verification assistance, banking readiness and post-incorporation support.

Your UK company formation can generally be managed remotely from India. You do not normally need to travel to the United Kingdom simply to register the company.

Identity verification

Companies House Requirements for Relevant Individuals

Identity-verification requirements began applying to relevant individuals from 18 November 2025. The timing and required action depend on whether a person is forming a company, being appointed, or meeting an applicable filing or transition requirement.

Seven Oak onboarding KYC and statutory Companies House identity verification are separate processes. We assist you through the identity-verification process so you can obtain your Companies House personal code where required.

View Identity-Verification Assistance

Banking readiness

Formation and Account Approval Are Separate

Seven Oak can review your business profile, help prepare an application, provide direct assistance where applicable and discuss alternative provider routes. Approval remains entirely with the bank, EMI or payment provider.

Eligibility may depend on residence, nationality where relevant, activity, ownership, target markets, expected transactions, KYC, source of funds and the provider's current risk appetite.

India-side responsibilities

UK Formation Does Not Replace Indian Advice

Indian residents owning, funding or investing in an overseas company may need to consider FEMA, ODI, LRS, Indian tax, foreign-asset reporting and bank-reporting requirements, depending on the circumstances.

Seven Oak supports the UK company side. India-specific legal, tax or FEMA advice should be obtained from an appropriately qualified Indian professional where required.

Questions from Indian founders

Practical Answers Before You Proceed

Can an Indian resident own and direct a UK limited company?

Yes, generally. UK residence is not normally required to own shares in or act as a director of a UK private limited company. The company, founder and proposed activity remain subject to Companies House requirements and the relevant identity, KYC and eligibility checks.

Do I need to travel to the UK to register the company?

Not normally for a standard eligible formation. Onboarding, document collection, review and incorporation can generally be handled remotely from India.

Do I need a UK-resident director?

No, a UK-resident director is not generally required. The company must have at least one individual director aged 16 or over and an appropriate UK registered office.

Which package suits an Indian founder without a UK address?

Prestige is designed for founders who need a Registered Office and Director Service Address. Elite adds a Virtual Business Address for 12 months, high priority support, direct banking and EMI assistance where applicable, and compliance assistance.

How long does the formation process take?

The typical overall working timeframe is approximately 3–5 working days after all required information and KYC requirements are complete. Companies House processing and approval remain outside Seven Oak's control, so completion is not guaranteed within a fixed period.

Does the Elite package guarantee a business bank account?

Elite includes direct banking assistance, business-profile review and application guidance. The final account-opening decision is made by the selected banking provider based on its eligibility, KYC and compliance requirements.

Does a UK company guarantee a UK bank or payment account?

No. Incorporation and provider approval are separate processes. Banks, EMIs and payment providers make their own decisions based on residence, activity, ownership, expected transactions, KYC and risk appetite.

What should I consider under Indian rules?

Depending on how the UK company is owned, funded and managed, FEMA, ODI, LRS, Indian tax, foreign-asset reporting and bank-reporting requirements may be relevant. Obtain advice from an appropriately qualified Indian professional where required.
