CIS Registration — £49, fixed.
Construction Industry Scheme registration — the difference between 20% and 30% off every payment. Delivered online to every UK town, with the fee agreed in writing before we start.
Everything the fixed fee covers
- Registered with HMRC as subcontractor, contractor or both — matched to how you actually work
- UTR and business details verified first, so payments match HMRC's records and the right rate applies
- Gross payment status assessed honestly — we tell you if you'd qualify before you pay for the application
- Contractors: verification and monthly-return duties explained before the first payment goes out
- HMRC queries and mismatches handled by us
Done in three simple steps
Message us on WhatsApp or the form with your company name or number. You get one fixed quote in writing — the price above, confirmed before anything starts.
We prepare the filing and send it for your approval. Where Companies House requires identity verification, it's a couple of minutes on your phone — we walk you through it.
Everything is submitted electronically to Companies House or HMRC, and we confirm to you the moment it's accepted — most electronic filings clear the same day.
The new Companies House identity rules
Under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, directors and people with significant control must now verify their identity with Companies House — mandatory for new appointments since 18 November 2025, and rolling out to existing directors at their next confirmation statement. Verified individuals receive an 11-character Personal Code used on filings, alongside the company's existing 6-character authentication code. It sounds like a lot; in practice it's a few minutes on a phone, and we handle the sequencing as part of every filing we submit.

CIS Registration FAQs
What happens if I work without registering?
Contractors must deduct 30% from your payments instead of the registered 20% — a third of your money gone until you claim it back through a tax return, often a year later. Registration protects your cash flow immediately; it's usually confirmed within days.
Am I a contractor or a subcontractor?
Pay others for construction work and you're a contractor, with verification and monthly-return duties. Get paid for construction work and you're a subcontractor. Plenty of firms are both — the combined registration covers it.
What is gross payment status?
The 0% rate — you're paid in full and settle your tax through your own returns, which transforms cash flow. HMRC tests turnover, compliance history and business records before granting it. We assess whether you'd pass before you spend money applying.
Is this service really available anywhere in the UK?
Yes — the whole engagement is online, so location is irrelevant. Records travel through our secure portal or WhatsApp, approvals happen on your phone, and filings go to HMRC and Companies House electronically. Same service, same fixed fee, everywhere.
