No. Sterling Formations does not charge annual fees. Note: all UK companies must file a Confirmation Statement with Companies House each year (currently £50 if filed online), and annual accounts — these are government requirements, not charges from us. Check the current official fee table before filing.
Provider pricing varies. Compare the Companies House fee, provider fee, registered office services, document services, and ongoing support rather than relying on a headline price.
