EnglishWhat is Fletcher Kennedy Company Services?
Updated
Fletcher Kennedy Company Services is a company formation specialist that incorporates limited liability companies in the United Kingdom and Ireland, plus International Business Companies in other jurisdictions. It also provides ongoing corporate services after incorporation, including company secretary, registered office, annual accounts, and confirmation statement filing. The site states roughly 25 years of experience and offers a free company name check with no commitment.
What the service covers
The site groups its work into four areas:
- Company Formation – full assistance through each step of the incorporation process, with advice continuing after the company is registered.
- Corporate Services – support for running the company: Company Secretary, Registered Office, Preparation and Filing of Annual Accounts, and Preparation and Filing of Confirmation Statements.
- Help & Advice – described as available from the moment you decide to incorporate and for as long after incorporation as needed.
- Company Name Check – a free availability check with no commitment.
Jurisdictions and typical timelines
| Jurisdiction | Registration method | Typical time stated | Most common type noted |
|---|---|---|---|
| United Kingdom | Online | 3 hours | Private Company Limited by Shares (Ltd) |
| Ireland | Online | Within 3 working days | Irish Limited Company (trading or non-trading; also used as a holding company) |
| Scotland | Online at Companies House in Edinburgh | 3 hours | Private Company (description cut off in source) |
The site also refers to incorporating International Business Companies in "reputable jurisdictions," without listing them in the material available.
Who it is for
This is relevant if you want a UK, Irish, or Scottish limited company set up and would rather have an intermediary handle the filing and post-incorporation obligations. It is also relevant if you need a registered office or company secretary address, or help preparing and filing annual accounts and confirmation statements.
It is less clearly aimed at someone who only wants a free name check — that is offered as a standalone, no-commitment step.
Practical points before you proceed
- Timelines are stated, not guaranteed. The 3-hour and 3-working-day figures are the site's own descriptions of online registration; actual timing depends on the registrar accepting the filing.
- Post-incorporation services are separate from formation. Company secretary, registered office, accounts, and confirmation statement filing are listed as corporate services, so confirm which are included in a formation package and which are billed separately.
- Pricing is not published in the material reviewed. Payment is handled via Stripe, but no figures or package tiers are given, so ask for a quote rather than assuming a price.
- Jurisdiction choice matters. An Irish company can be trading or non-trading and can act as a holding company; a UK or Scottish private company limited by shares is the standard trading vehicle. Pick based on where you will operate and bank, not just speed.
How to start
- Run the free company name check to confirm availability.
- Decide on jurisdiction (UK, Ireland, or Scotland) based on where the company will trade and hold assets.
- Contact the firm to confirm what the formation service includes, what the corporate services cost, and what documents they need from you.
- Complete incorporation, then arrange any ongoing corporate services you require.
