When an agent has agreed to verify your identity, you’ll need to give them documents from an approved list as evidence of your identity. They may charge a fee for their services.

Filing your next confirmation statement after 18 November
=================================================================

You will not be able to file your LLP’s confirmation statement after 18 November unless all members have verified their identity.

You must include the personal code of every member in the confirmation statement. Your filing will be rejected if you do not include this information.

If someone else files the confirmation statement for your LLP, all members must share their personal code with them.

Find out more about your Companies House personal code: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/companies-house-personal-codes-for-identity-verification and where to find it.

Why this matters for you and your business
=================================================================

Economic crime costs the UK billions each year and creates unfair competition for legitimate businesses like yours. Identity verification protects honest business owners from being impersonated by criminals and creates a cleaner, more trustworthy business environment. 

For most people, verification takes just a few minutes and only needs to be done once.

Consequences of not verifying your identity
=================================================================

Any member who continues to act without verifying their identity will be committing an offence. The LLP is also committing an offence if they fail to rectify this. 

If you do not comply with the verification requirements: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/verifying-your-identity-for-companies-house#what-happens-if-you-do-not-verify, Companies House may take enforcement action. This may include prosecution and financial penalties for the LLP and its members.

The LLP and its members may also be committing an offence for failing to file a confirmation statement.

Please forward this message to any members or PSCs who need to verify their identity.

Identity verification requirements for limited partnerships, corporate directors of companies, corporate members of limited liability partnerships (LLPs), and officers of corporate PSCs, will be introduced at a later date.
