Companies Act 2006 - Changes to Company Identification Procedures

As of 1 January 2007, all companies must now include the following details on all of their company websites, electronic communications (including emails) and order forms (whether electronic or not):

• Place of company registration (e.g. England and Wales)
• Company registration number
• Address of registered office
• Legal status (e.g. limited company or limited liability partnerships)
• If appropriate, the fact that the company has or is about to cease trading

So what should you do?

• Ensure that all emails sent from your company include these details in the footer (or signature)
• Make sure that there is at least one clear page on your website with this information
