What is a Director Resignation?

A director resignation is the formal process of removing a director from a company’s board. Once a director resigns, Companies House must be notified using the correct form (TM01).

Updating your company records is important to:

  • Maintain accurate statutory registers

  • Comply with UK company law

  • Protect remaining directors and the company from liability

  • Ensure official filings reflect current board members
