Officers of UK companies and members of LLPs are becoming increasingly conscious of the need to keep their personal details private, especially in relation to their residential addresses.
There is now a distinction between the service address of a director or LLP member, and their usual residential address. While the service address is publicly available Companies House need only disclose a residential address to public authorities and credit reference agencies in certain circumstances.
In contrast to directors and LLP members, company secretaries only need to provide a service address to Companies House. They do not file their residential address.
Any residential address, for a director, LLP member or a company secretary, which was publicly available at Companies House on 1 October 2009, became that person's service address on that date.
Directors, LLP members and company secretaries are able to change the address that is on the public record to help keep their details confidential and Jordans can offer an address for use as a service address.
