Ltd company advice

Hello everyone,

Hope your all well?

I registered a limited company while living in London 3 months ago, haven't traded yet & its an online company.

I've now moved back to Scotland to be closer to family am I right in saying my registered office must be in England/Wales and can be a virtual office provided by the liked of registered address etc? but my director address/business address can be a virtual office in Scotland?

Many thanks for the help,
David

As far as I understand as long as you have a physical address for your limited company then you should be fine. If the company is registered in England/Wales then I would assume the address should be in England/Wales. As far as the directors address, I am led to believe that you only need an official mailing address. However, I would take advice on this.

That is my understanding as well although it pays to check these things from a legal standpoint just to cover all bases.

To be registered in England/Wales you would obviously need an office address in one of those two countries. As for your directors address, this could be your home address, business address or a mail drop address. A word of warning, refrain from using your home address if possible as you don't want people knowing where you live.
