Starting a UK company from the Czech Republic can be completed remotely, without travelling to the UK or maintaining a physical presence there simply to incorporate. The Non-UK Residents package from Form My Company is designed to bring the main formation, documents, address and first-year administrative requirements together for founders managing their business from abroad.
The process gives you a UK company structure while you remain in the Czech Republic. You can receive company documents digitally, have printed documents delivered internationally, and use a Bolton BL1 registered office and director service address so your Czech residential address does not need to be used as the company’s public-facing address.
A UK company must have an appropriate registered office address in the relevant UK jurisdiction. GOV.UK confirms that the registered office must be a physical UK address and must be capable of receiving company correspondence.
What is the Non-UK Residents package and who is it for?
The package is intended for entrepreneurs, consultants, online businesses and other founders in the Czech Republic who want to establish a UK limited company while managing the process remotely. It is particularly useful when you want your company administration, statutory documents and official correspondence handled through one UK-based service.
The entire formation process can be managed remotely from the Czech Republic. You do not need to travel to the UK simply to form the company, and you can continue managing the company’s administrative documents online after incorporation.
The package also provides practical support for international document handling. Physical documents can be sent to the Czech Republic, while the online dashboard allows you to manage company documentation from wherever you are.
For official background, GOV.UK explains the standard process for registering a private limited company with Companies House, including the requirement to provide an official address and company details.
What’s included in your UK company formation package
Company formation in less than 3 hours
Company formation in less than 3 hours (subject to Companies House processing times, weekends and bank holidays; delays may occur if incorrect or incomplete information is submitted or due to technical complexities).
The service is designed to make the incorporation stage straightforward for founders who are not based in the UK. Companies House remains responsible for processing the application, so the stated timeframe should be understood as a package service timeframe rather than a guarantee of a particular Companies House decision time.
Free Wise Business Account with a UK account number and sort code
Free Wise Business Account with a UK account number and sort code (Wise Business Account applications are subject to eligibility and are approved entirely at the discretion of Wise; Form My Company acts only as a referrer and does not guarantee account approval).
This allows eligible applicants to apply for a business account after formation. The application remains subject to Wise’s own checks and approval process.
Digital Certificate of Incorporation
The Digital Certificate of Incorporation provides an electronic record confirming that the company has been incorporated. It is useful when you need to share proof of incorporation with professional contacts or service providers without waiting for physical documents.
Digital Share Certificates
Digital Share Certificates provide an electronic record of the company’s issued share ownership. Keeping these documents with your company records makes it easier to access ownership information when required.
Digital Memorandum of Association (MoA)
Digital Memorandum of Association (MoA) provides the company’s memorandum electronically as part of the formation documentation. It forms part of the constitutional paperwork associated with incorporation.
Digital Articles of Association (AoA)
Digital Articles of Association (AoA) provide the company’s governing rules in digital form. The Articles are an important part of the company’s constitutional documentation and can be retained with the other company records.
Printed Certificate of Incorporation
Printed Certificate of Incorporation gives you a physical copy of the incorporation document as well as the digital version. This can be useful when maintaining a physical corporate file or when an organisation specifically asks for printed documentation.
Printed Share Certificates
Printed Share Certificates provide physical copies of the company’s share certificates. They complement the digital share records and can be retained with other corporate documents.
International document delivery
International document delivery (if post or documents need to be received at the customer’s address, standard mail handling charges apply; each scanned item emailed is charged at £2 per copy; shipping charges are on the Document Shipping page — link this).
For a founder based in the Czech Republic, international delivery means physical company documents can be sent from the UK to your address rather than requiring you to collect them in person.
Maintenance of statutory books
Maintenance of statutory books helps keep the company’s required corporate records organised. This is particularly practical for an overseas founder who wants company administration maintained in the UK while continuing to manage the business from the Czech Republic.
Free Confirmation Statement preparation and filing
Free Confirmation Statement preparation and filing (free for the first year; renewal available through this package for the applicable renewal fee via the File a Confirmation Statement service — link this).
A confirmation statement is an important Companies House filing used to confirm that company information remains accurate. Form My Company’s File a Confirmation Statement service provides a separate route for future filings.
Free prestigious Registered Office Address in Bolton BL1
Free prestigious Registered Office Address in Bolton BL1 (free for the first year; renews at £399.99+VAT for each subsequent 12-month period from the renewal date).
A registered office is the company’s official address for statutory correspondence and appears on the public register. Using the Bolton BL1 address means a Czech home address does not need to be used as the company’s registered office.
GOV.UK confirms that a registered office must be a physical address in the UK and must meet the appropriate address requirements.
Free Director Service Address to keep the customer’s residential address private
Free Director Service Address to keep the customer’s residential address private.
The director service address is used as the public correspondence address for the director. It helps separate the director’s public company correspondence details from their residential address. The director’s usual residential address still needs to be provided where Companies House requires it, but the service address serves the public-facing role.
For a founder living in the Czech Republic, this can be useful if you prefer not to use your Czech home address as the publicly displayed service address.
Free registered office mail forwarding for 1 year
Free registered office mail forwarding for 1 year (free for the first year; eligible official government correspondence is scanned and digitally forwarded; the first 10 scanned copies are free, each additional scanned copy is £2; a printed copy of an eligible document is provided free, but Royal Mail postage/delivery charges to the customer are payable by the customer; shipping charges are on the Document Shipping page — link this; documents classed as official government mail are listed on the Official Government Mail Guide blog post — link this).
The What Is Official Government Mail guide explains the types of official correspondence that may be handled through a registered office service.
This arrangement is especially practical for a Czech-based founder because important UK correspondence can be digitally forwarded rather than relying on someone at a UK address to monitor it manually.
International tracked delivery
International tracked delivery provides tracking for physical documents being sent internationally. For a founder in the Czech Republic, this provides visibility over the delivery of physical company paperwork travelling from the UK.
No complicated administrative paperwork
No complicated administrative paperwork.
The package is designed to simplify the administrative side of incorporation. You still need to provide accurate information and complete any required verification, but the service brings the main formation documentation and administrative support into one process.
Priority 24/7 customer support
Priority 24/7 customer support.
For founders in the Czech Republic, access to support outside conventional UK working hours can be useful when your working schedule does not match UK office hours. It provides a route to assistance while you continue managing the company remotely.
No hidden charges
No hidden charges.
The package sets out its included features and the stated renewal terms separately. Where a particular activity has a separate charge, such as applicable mail handling or shipping, the relevant terms apply.
Access to an online user dashboard to manage company documents 24/7
Access to an online user dashboard to manage company documents 24/7.
The dashboard provides a central place to manage company documentation online. This is useful for international directors because access does not depend on being physically present at the UK registered office.
Annual Renewal Fee of £399
Annual Renewal Fee of £399, covering (for the first 12 months only, then renewing): statutory books maintenance, the first year’s confirmation statement preparation & filing, the BL1 1BR Bolton registered office address, director service address protection, and international mail forwarding (Royal Mail charges payable by the customer).
The renewal arrangement is important to consider before incorporation because the first-year package benefits do not automatically continue indefinitely without renewal. The stated annual renewal covers the listed ongoing services, while applicable Royal Mail charges remain payable by the customer.
Non-Residents
+ £100 Companies House Fee
Pricing and renewal terms for Czech Republic founders
The package combines formation with services that are particularly relevant when the company is managed from outside the UK. Instead of arranging the registered office, director service address, statutory records, confirmation statement support and mail handling separately, the package brings these services together for the first year.
The £399 annual renewal applies after the first 12 months according to the package terms above. It covers statutory books maintenance, the first year’s confirmation statement preparation and filing, the Bolton BL1 registered office, director service address protection and international mail forwarding.
Companies House also publishes its own statutory fee information, which should always be checked independently because government fees can change. The current Companies House fees guidance was updated on 2 July 2026.
Staying compliant after year one
Being based in the Czech Republic does not remove the need to keep the UK company’s records and filings up to date. The company should continue maintaining its statutory information and ensuring required filings are completed on time.
Renewing the package keeps the stated registered office, director service address, statutory books maintenance, confirmation statement support and international mail forwarding in place. If you allow relevant services to lapse, responsibility for those administrative requirements may fall back on the company and its officers.
The Registered Office Address for Non-Residents guide explains why a UK company needs an appropriate UK registered office and distinguishes it from a trading address and director service address.
It is also sensible to keep your own records of company changes, ownership information and filing deadlines. Professional administrative support can help with the process, but directors remain responsible for ensuring that the company’s information is accurate.

Why choose Form My Company?
Form My Company focuses on bringing company formation and ongoing company administration into a single online service. Its service offering includes formation packages alongside registered office, director service address, confirmation statement and company secretarial services.
For a founder in the Czech Republic, the main practical advantage is continuity. You can form the company remotely, access company documentation online, use a UK registered office, keep your residential address separate from the public service address, and have eligible official correspondence digitally forwarded.
The service is also designed around international document handling, which means you do not have to travel to the UK simply to receive your printed incorporation documents.
The key point is that the package is administrative support rather than a substitute for specialist legal or tax advice. Questions about your personal tax position, the company’s tax treatment, cross-border activities or Czech requirements should be considered with appropriately qualified advisers.
