Documents and information required for company incorporation in the UK

For starting up a business in the United Kingdom, we will require the following documents and information:

Constitutional documents

The Memorandum of Association: a short document confirming the owners intention to form the company and to become members of that company on incorporation.

The Articles of Association: the company's principal constitutional document, which contains in detail all the administrative provisions of the company’s operations that are agreed by its members. It sets out how the important decisions are taken by the members and directors, as well as various matters connected with the shares, general meetings of the members, appointment and powers of directors, board resolutions and notices, helping to ensure that the company’s business runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible. A company can either adopt a form of Model Articles defined by Statute or adopt their own Bespoke Articles.
