Companies House fees have increased from 1 February

9 February 2026

Companies House fees have increased from 1 February 2026, affecting both the cost of incorporation of new limited companies and many ongoing reporting requirements.

Many of the fees have increased substantially and it is important that you factor in these additional fees.

The cost of the confirmation statement as follows:

	Previous Fee	Fee from 1 February 2026
Confirmation statement (Digital Fee)	£34	£50
Confirmation statement (Paper Fee)	£62	£110

The full list of fee increases can be found here.

Why are the fees changing?

Companies House has said that the increases are used to cover the cost of incorporating companies and support the publishing “of company information worth billions to the UK economy”.

It also confirmed that the additional funding would be used to support its enhanced powers under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act (ECCTA) 2023.

These allow Companies House to query and remove false and misleading information from its registers.
