UK Nominee Director Services – Legally Compliant & Privacy-Focused. From £1,200/year with 24–48h setup. Appoint a UK nominee director while you retain full control through a Power of Attorney (PoA). Transparent pricing and documentation to meet Companies House PSC rules.
What Is a Nominee Director?
A nominee director is a third party who appears on public company records as the official director but does not manage the company. You retain authority via PoA and clear limits of authority. This supports privacy while preserving full legal compliance with PSC disclosure.
Key points
- ✅ Legal in the UK with accurate PSC disclosure to Companies House
- ✅ UK-resident nominees only
- ✅ Full control via Power of Attorney
- ✅ Works alongside non-resident company formation support
Compliance & Privacy: PSC details remain public; however, a nominee director can reduce visibility across third-party business databases and scraping tools. For added privacy on the shareholder side, consider a compliant nominee shareholder arrangement (subject to PSC thresholds).
