From Monday, 9 November 2020, Companies House is contacting all companies currently receiving paper reminders, explaining that it has stopped the paper service and how it plans to reinvest the cost saving.

The email reminder service is free, and business owners can:

  • choose up to four people to receive a reminder (including an agent); and
  • file their document immediately from a link within the email.

"Stopping the paper reminder letters will save us around £1.2 million each year. We can now reinvest this saving into our products and services, to make us more efficient and improve our customer experience," Companies House said in a short statement on Friday.
