A service built for clarity
What you can expect from us.
Transparent pricing
Choose a standard or priority service, with pricing clearly shown for UK resident and non-UK resident routes before payment.
Secure document handling
Identity documents and proof of address are submitted through the secure journey, not by email. Documents must be in English or supplied with a certified English translation.
Clear process ownership
We review the evidence and make a submission when the required standard is met. Companies House controls the final processing and personal-code issue.
Independent service
Authorised to verify – independent of Companies House.
SB Business Consulting Limited is registered as a Companies House authorised corporate service provider (ACSP), also known as an authorised agent. DirectorIDVerify is independent of Companies House and GOV.UK. Companies House does not endorse or recommend our service.
