Do you legally need company secretarial support?
Even without a formally appointed company secretary, UK companies are still legally required to maintain proper records, file annual confirmation statements, document director and shareholder decisions, and ensure that all legal documents accurately reflect the company’s current structure.
Failing to meet these obligations can result in fines, reputational damage, or even dissolution. That’s why many companies, regardless of size, choose to outsource their company secretarial duties to professionals.
