Restricting the disclosure of your home address

01 May 2018

If your home address is publicly available on company documents you can apply to Companies House to restrict the disclosure of your address, as long as it has not been used as your company’s registered office.

Accountancy Daily highlighted that Companies House is alerting individuals to a change to the data suppression laws which will help them remove their home address from publicly available company documents.

“This applies to company directors and others such as secretaries, people with significant control (PSC) and LLP members, whose home address is publicly available on company documents. Anyone who wants to remove their home address can apply at a cost of £55 for each document they want to suppress.”

Companies House guidance on restricting the disclosure of your home address is available to view on GOV.UK.
