Common questions
For a UK-only company (or UK plus one Asian market), Osome and Sleek bundle formation and accounting at lower cost. Commenda is the better fit for a cross-border group: it manages the UK alongside entities in other countries, with transfer pricing, consolidation, and the India-to-UK side handled.
Yes. The UK requires no resident director, and you can form a UK Ltd remotely. Director ID verification is now mandatory for directors and PSCs. A local UK bank account often needs a nominee director; Commenda provides one where required.
No. You can incorporate first and open an account after, usually through a fintech (Revolut, Wise, Airwallex). The provider runs its own KYC, so an account is never truly included. Commenda guides the setup and provides a nominee director where a local bank requires one.
Commenda files in about 2 to 5 business days, subject to KYC clearance. Companies House processing itself is usually within a few days.
They price UK formation and UK accounting. Commenda prices a managed UK entity consolidated with your group, plus the cross-border side. Compare total cost of ownership across countries, not the UK line alone.
