Business Registration
About this area of practice
Registering a business is the visible part of a larger job. The registration produces a certificate; what determines how the business actually runs is the document behind it — the partnership deed, the LLP agreement, the articles — together with the agreements it will use with customers, suppliers and staff. A business that is registered but undocumented has done the easy half.
The structure chosen has consequences that are much easier to select than to change: who bears liability, what compliance follows, how a participant leaves, and how the business is taxed. This section deals with each form separately, and the choice between them is worth taking advice on before anything is filed, not after.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
It depends on how many people are involved, whether outside investment is contemplated, how much compliance you are prepared to carry and how liability should sit. Each form has consequences, and the tax position should be considered alongside the legal one before a choice is made.
Rarely. A registration establishes the entity; trading generally also needs the governing document, the tax registrations applicable to the activity, a bank account in the entity's name and the agreements it will use. Which of those apply depends on the business.
No period or fee is stated on this website. Government fees and processing depend on the form, the authority and the current position, and none of it is within anyone's control to promise. What is controlled is that the application is complete and consistent, which is what avoids avoidable delay.
Certain filings require certification by a practising professional of a specified description. Where that applies, it is coordinated with a chartered accountant or company secretary. The drafting, the advisory work and the agreements are handled here.

This page is general information about an area of practice. It is not legal advice, and it is not an advertisement or a solicitation of work. Reading it creates no advocate–client relationship.
Procedures, limitation periods, court fees, stamp duty and government charges change, and what applies depends on the facts of the particular matter. Nothing here should be acted on without advice on your own documents, and no outcome is promised or predicted.
