If GOV.UK One Login has rejected you, or you hold a non-UK passport and have no UK credit record, we verify your identity as a registered Companies House ACSP and give you the 11-character personal code.
If the free GOV.UK route worked for you, use it. It is free and it is fine. This page is for the people it does not work for.
We verify your identity where the free route cannot. We do not bypass any legal requirement, and we will tell you honestly if your documents are not sufficient.
Boru is an Authorised Corporate Service Provider on the Companies House register (Agent No. AP000267). We verify your identity to the Companies House standard. This is the statutory route, not a workaround.
Where One Login demands a UK-chipped passport or a UK credit footprint, an ACSP can verify a broader set of government-issued identity documents, including many non-UK passports.
We confirm the verification directly to Companies House and you receive the same 11-character personal code the free route issues. It is the identical legal outcome.
A director’s code goes on the next confirmation statement; a non-director PSC must provide theirs within 14 days of their birth month; an overseas company director is filed via form OS VS01. We make sure it lands.
Tell us who needs verifying, where they are, and whether One Login has already failed. No identity documents at this stage.
We confirm which identity documents we can accept and the fixed fee per person before we start, so there are no surprises.
We verify your identity through a secure, vetted channel, guided by a person, not an app that keeps rejecting you.
We confirm the verification to Companies House and send you your 11-character personal code.
We make sure the code is linked to each role and the right filing, so the verification actually counts.
Once your documents are ready, most verifications are completed within a few business days. Tell us your deadline and we will work to it.
We charge a fixed fee per person, quoted to you in writing before we start. There is no charge for the initial enquiry, so you know the full cost before you commit to anything.
Verifying several officers at once? Tell us how many and we will quote the group together.
You are handing a firm your identity, so here is exactly who we are, all of it publicly verifiable on GOV.UK.
Boru is a GOV.UK-listed Authorised Corporate Service Provider (Agent No. AP000267). We are authorised to verify company officers and confirm it to Companies House ourselves.
We are supervised by HMRC for anti-money-laundering purposes (Reg. No. XCML00000187357). Identity verification is what a supervised firm is built to do.
Boru Global (UK) Limited, registered in England & Wales (No. 14435343), ICO-registered (Ref. ZB534745). Traceable and accountable.
You deal with a person who understands the filing consequences, not a queue. That matters when a deadline or a bank freeze is involved.
Verify our registration on the GOV.UK register of Authorised Corporate Service Providers (Agent No. AP000267).
GOV.UK One Login is built around UK identity signals. It wants a UK-chipped passport it can scan with a phone, or a UK credit and address history it can match. If your passport is not chipped in a way it accepts, or you have never lived in the UK and have no credit footprint, the automated check simply fails. It is a limit of the tool, not a judgement on you.
An Authorised Corporate Service Provider is the statutory alternative that Parliament put in place for exactly this, not a loophole. We verify your identity to the same Companies House standard by a human-led route that does not depend on those UK signals, and we file it for you.
Tell us your situation and we come back within one business day with the documents we can accept and a fixed fee. When you get in touch, please include:
We never ask for identity documents through this form. It collects your contact details and situation only. Your actual ID is collected later through a secure, vetted channel after we have spoken. Everything you share is handled in strict confidence; Boru Global (UK) Limited is registered with the ICO (Ref. ZB534745).
Since 18 November 2025, every director and every person with significant control (PSC) of a UK company must verify their identity with Companies House. New appointments verify at the point of filing. Existing directors are brought in through their company’s next confirmation statement during the transition period, and existing PSCs must verify within 14 days of the start of their birth month. If you are unsure of your own deadline, send us the company number and we will confirm it.
It is your personal Companies House identity code, issued once your identity has been verified. The same code is reused every time you are appointed to, or already hold, a role at any UK company, so you verify once and connect the code to each role. You receive the same code whether you verify through the free route or through us as an ACSP.
One Login is built around UK identity signals. It expects a UK-chipped passport it can read with a phone, or a UK credit and address history it can check against. Many non-UK passports are not chipped in a way it accepts, and someone who has never lived in the UK has no credit footprint to match, so the automated check fails through no fault of yours. An ACSP verifies identity by a different, human-led route that does not depend on those UK signals.
Yes. As a registered ACSP we can verify directors and PSCs wherever they are in the world. The verification is done through a secure session and a wider set of accepted documents, so you do not need to be in the UK or hold a UK passport.
We confirm the exact list for your situation before we start, but as an ACSP we can accept a broader range of government-issued identity documents than One Login, including many non-UK passports and national identity cards. We never ask for those documents through the form on this page; they are collected later through a secure, vetted channel once we have spoken.
It becomes an offence, and the practical consequences arrive quickly. Companies House can reject the company’s confirmation statement under section 853A, which blocks a filing the company is legally required to make; unverified officers can face financial penalties; the company can ultimately be struck off; and banks increasingly freeze or refuse accounts when the register shows an unverified officer. Verifying is the cheaper problem to solve.
Once we have confirmed your documents and the fee, most verifications are completed within a few business days. If you are working to a confirmation-statement date or a birth-month deadline, tell us and we will prioritise accordingly.
A fixed fee per person, quoted to you in writing before we start, with no charge for the initial enquiry. If you have several officers to verify we will quote the group together. The fee covers the verification, the filing, and connecting your personal code to the right role.
