We are company formation agents and address service operators authorised by Companies House to submit company formation applications online. Our team has been supplying these services since 2011. OUR ADDRESS SERVICE is provided from an address in the heart of London's business and professional services district. We were the first formation agent to offer all our address users a free document scanning service. Furthermore, we are the only address service provider to offer an online document storage system allowing clients to access all the post we have scanned for them as and when they need to. This saves our clients a lot of time searching through their emails to find their post. Our TRANSPARENT PRICING lets clients predict how much we will charge for ongoing services. In addition to company formations, we have developed expertise in two other services, namely; COMMUNITY INTEREST COMPANIES (CIC): We register hundreds of Community Interest Companies every year and have been doing so for many years. We know the registration system inside out and can complete the process quickly and efficiently. Our charges for this service are lower than the fees typically charged by accountants and solicitors. In fact, many of our CIC orders come from professionals. ADMINISTRATIVE COMPANY RESTORATIONS: We have developed expertise in restoring companies struck off by Companies House. We act quickly and efficiently and keep clients informed at all process stages. Our fees are modest and transparent. We process several hundred restorations annually and frequently do so on behalf of accountants and solicitors. SOCIAL ENTERPRISES AND CHARITIES: We have several options for companies limited by guarantees. The possibilities range from companies that clubs and associations can use to company structures suitable for future use as charities. We also have a close association with a small accountancy practice that specialises in charity accounting and, because of their experience as trustees to several charities, can advise on the creation of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) NON-UK RESIDENT CLIENTS: Our scanning and document storage and filing system makes our service particularly useful to non-UK resident clients. No charge for getting post; it's all included in the subscription. Consequently, many of our clients are not based in the UK. : LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIPS (LLPs): Our pricing makes our service particularly attractive to LLPs.

Excellent service. Found this company through the Gov UK list of approved director service addresses. Easy to set up, reasonable price, and they were very helpful when it came time to strike off my company. Definitely recommended!

Ho scelto 1stchoice-formations per costituire la mia LTD nel Regno Unito e sono rimasto piacevolmente colpito. Il processo è stato chiaro, veloce e con un prezzo decisamente accessibile rispetto ad altri provider. In pochi giorni ho ricevuto tutti i documenti ufficiali (certificato di incorporazione, certificato azionario, registro dei soci ecc.) pronti per essere utilizzati, e tutto è andato liscio senza intoppi.
Lo consiglio vivamente a chi cerca un servizio affidabile, economico e immediato per la creazione di una società UK.
I chose 1stchoice-formations to incorporate my LTD in the UK and I was truly impressed. The whole process was clear, fast, and came at a very affordable price compared to other providers. Within a few days I received all the official documents (certificate of incorporation, share certificate, shareholder register, etc.), ready to use — everything went smoothly.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, low-cost and efficient UK company formation service.

The Customer Service officer, Pratim, has been very helpful in dealing with my issues this morning. I thank him heartfully and would recommend his service in the future. He is a perfect gentleman and a great asset to the organisation. Well done, and keep up the good work.

One of those niggling access problems which could have caused a large delay. Arun took the time to sort it out immediately and followed up with a call the next day to check if things were ok.
Otherwise, we've used 1stChoice for years and have been very happy

My conversation with Rnnie was the best I've ever had with 1st Choice and I will certainly try to speak with him on future occasions. He patiently led me through the process of getting back to our portal to download an urgent document. Also, when I explained that the email provider first registered with yourselves was sub-optimum, he explained that this could be changed to my personal (more reliablke0 email address/provider and then he took action t5o make this happen. He kept all his promises time-wise. He mentioned that he had been with 1st Choice for some years, and it shows. Thank you Ronnie.
