England rules for a business with a website

Putting your business online does not change the rules, but these points often come up:

  • A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
  • A limited company must include its name on all company documents, publicity and letters, and on business letters, order forms and websites it must also show its registered number, its registered office address and where it is registered. GOV.UK: company names on websites
  • You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
