* Exceptions to the increase in Paper Incorporation Fees

The increase to the standard paper incorporation fees does not affect CICs, Overseas Companies, LPs, EEIGs, SEs, unlimited companies and companies and LLPs delivering documentation in Welsh. Companies House receives very low volumes of applications for these entities and there is currently no electronic service available to them.

As they are not able to take advantage of the lower electronic fee Companies House has decided that the fee for registration will stay at the current level (£20) until an electronic service is developed.  We see this as a reasonable approach and a short term measure as we move towards 100% e capability for incorporation.

However, paper same day incorporation applications for LPs, Overseas Companies, unlimited companies and Welsh companies (and Welsh LLPs) delivering applications in Welsh are subject to the £100 fee.  There is no same day incorporation service for CICS, EEIGs or SEs.
