What does Companies House charge if I change the company name later?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

A same-day name change filed online costs £85 in Companies House fees, as of February 2026. Shareholders must approve the new name first, and it has to pass the same name rules as at formation. We can prepare the resolution and the filing for you.
