Independent service using public Companies House data

Check what Companies House shows for your directors and PSCs

Enter a company number to see the identity verification information shown on the public register. The result separates Director and PSC roles, explains the dates shown, and links to the relevant official service.

Companies House shows the public status. This checker explains what it means and where to go next.

Free public check

Start with a company number

We only ask for a company number. Do not enter a personal code, date of birth or identity document.

No account, email address or personal code required.

What you get

One search, separate answers for each role

Verifying your identity once gives you a Companies House personal code. You still need to use that code for each relevant company role.

01

Director appointments

See the public verification statement or due date for each current natural-person Director appointment.

02

PSC records

Check each current individual PSC separately, including the public 14-day window where Companies House supplies it.

03

Official next steps

Follow a direct GOV.UK or Companies House link for the role that needs attention.

Someone who is both a director and a PSC of the same company must deal with the two roles separately.

Status guide

Four results, with a clear fallback

The checker only uses dates and role evidence returned by Companies House. It does not manufacture a deadline when a field is missing.

Complete

The public register shows a verification statement supplied for this role.

Action required

A current or passed action date is shown, with no active statement.

Pending

The action date or PSC window returned by Companies House is in the future.

Unknown / Review required

The public data is missing, unsupported, incomplete or conflicting. The checker will not guess.

Why action can remain

Identity verification and role confirmation are separate

A person normally verifies their identity once and receives one personal code. The code must then be connected to each relevant role.

A verified identity on its own does not show that the Director appointment or PSC record has been dealt with.

Optional Action Pack

Keep the dates, role steps and evidence in one place

The free checker tells you what the public record shows. The 11-page Action Pack helps you organise Director and PSC tasks, record filing evidence and follow the published route when a code or record does not match.

Important limits

This is a role check, not a full compliance certificate

The result does not confirm that a company is fully compliant or ready to file. It does not check every Companies House duty, determine legal liability, or replace the public register and official correspondence.
