Company secretarial
Change of Company Name Pack
About this document
A company can change its name by special resolution of the shareholders (or by any other method its articles allow). The change takes effect only when Companies House issues a certificate of incorporation on change of name. This pack takes you through choosing a name that will be accepted, passing the resolution, filing, and telling everyone who needs to know.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
