Claiming and customising your Gazette company profile helps demonstrate corporate compliance and legitimacy, and helps you to stand out from competitors. Here's how to claim your Gazette company profile.

What is a Gazette company profile?

The Gazette publishes a company profile for every UK company registered with Companies House. Each company has its own profile page showing information that is required to be gazetted under the Companies Act 2006 and other useful data, including:

• incorporation date
• director names 
• registered office details
• account filing details
• nature of business

The recent launch of company law event information also now means that company law data can be found via a handy timeline of gazetted company events on each company profile page.

How do you claim a Gazette company profile?

If you wish to claim a Gazette company profile, you can do so by following the below steps:

1. Head to the create an account page and enter your registered company details, such as Companies House registration number and address.
2. Add the registered director details. If the email address you’re entering doesn’t correspond with the name of the company, you’ll need to supply additional documents to verify your identity.
3. The director will receive a confirmation email and should click on the link to complete the setup of their company registration account. The details provided will then be verified to prevent the unauthorised registration of a company. This can take up to two working days.
4. You will receive an email notification once approval has been given.
