Identity Verification Service: Director or PSC

Ensure compliance with UK Companies House and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations with Form My Company’s Director and People with Significant Control (PSC) Identity Verification Service.

We make identity verification simple, fast, and secure, so your company formation or update process can proceed without delays.

What is a Director / PSC Identity Verification?

Under UK law, companies must verify the identity of directors and PSCs as part of compliance with anti-money laundering regulations.

This process confirms the individual’s:

• Full name and date of birth

• Residential address

• Nationality

• Valid government-issued ID (passport, driving license, or national ID)

Identity verification helps prevent fraud, ensures legal compliance, and allows your company to complete filings with Companies House without interruption.

Who This Service is For

Our identity verification service is ideal for:

• New company formations where directors or PSCs must be verified

• Existing companies updating director or PSC information

• Companies requiring compliance for bank account opening or funding applications

• Companies submitting confirmation statements or other filings where verification is required

If you’re unsure whether verification is needed, our team can check your obligations and guide you through the process.

1. Submit your details securely online – name, date of birth, residential address, and ID document.

2. We verify your identity using trusted AML-compliant systems.

3. Receive confirmation – digital proof of verification that satisfies Companies House and other compliance requirements.

Verification can usually be completed within 24 hours, allowing your company filings to proceed without delay.

Why Identity Verification Matters

Identity verification is legally required for directors and PSCs:

• It ensures compliance with UK anti-money laundering regulations

• Reduces the risk of fraud and identity theft

• Enables smooth company formation and filing processes

• Required by banks, funders, and regulators for corporate compliance

Failure to complete verification can delay company formation or filings and may lead to compliance issues.
