Correspondence Address Scotland

What is a Correspondence Address?

A Correspondence Address, also known as a Service Address, is an official address that all company directors are legally required to have when they are appointed to a UK Company. Directors receive their statutory mail and legal notices from Companies House and HMRC at the Correspondence Address. The address details are available to the public and are displayed on the public records.

The Correspondence Address must be a physical address and it can be located anywhere in the world. It can be a residential address, non-residential address or it can be the same address as the company’s Registered Office Address.

Our Scotland Correspondence Address can only be used within a company if the company is also using our Scotland Registered Office Service.
