Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in England:

  • 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

General information, not legal advice. Each link goes to the official page, where the details for your situation are.
