Companies House bank details have changed

All customers who make payments by bank transfer (BACS) will need to use our new bank account details from 1 September 2020.

Our change in status from a trading fund to a central government organisation means we’re changing to a different type of bank account. We must now use bank accounts which come under the Government Banking scheme.

For customers who need to make a BACS payment, any letters we send to you from 1 September 2020 will include our new bank account details and instructions on how to pay Companies House. We’ve also updated our bank details in any online guidance and emails.

Our old bank account will stay open for 6 months to make sure that all customers transition successfully to the new account. The old account will close at the end of February 2021.
