If you are based in Albania and want to establish a UK limited company, you can complete the company formation process remotely without travelling to the UK. Non-Residents UK Company Formation provides a service for non-UK residents who want to establish and manage a UK company from overseas, including a UK registered office and director service address in N1 (London).

The service combines company incorporation with practical administration services, including statutory records, company documents, registered office arrangements, mail forwarding, international document delivery and online access to company information.

Can You Form a UK Company From Albania?

Yes. UK company formation can be completed remotely while you remain resident in Albania. You can provide the required company details and identification documents online and complete any applicable verification and compliance procedures without travelling to the UK solely for incorporation.

A UK limited company must have an appropriate registered office address in the UK. The service provides a registered office in N1 (London) for receiving eligible official company correspondence.

A director service address is also included. This provides a dedicated correspondence address for the director and can help keep your Albanian residential address separate from the relevant public company address arrangements.

Who Can Use UK Company Formation From Albania?

The service is intended for founders, entrepreneurs and business owners living in Albania who want to establish a UK company while continuing to operate from outside the UK.

It can be useful for non-UK residents who want a UK company structure without relocating or maintaining a physical presence in the UK. The incorporation process is handled remotely, and company administration can continue online after the company has been formed.

Alongside incorporation, the service brings together company documents, statutory record maintenance, registered office arrangements and correspondence handling to support ongoing administration.

What Information Is Needed for UK Company Formation From Albania?

To establish a UK limited company, you will need to provide information about the proposed business and its directors and ownership structure.

Depending on the circumstances of the application, this can include:

  • Proposed company name and details
  • Director information
  • Shareholder information
  • People with Significant Control details
  • Registered office details
  • Details of the company's activities

You will also need to complete any identity, verification or compliance checks applicable to your application.

The exact documents and information required may vary depending on the company structure and the checks that apply to the application.

What Is Included in the Non-Residents UK Company Formation Package?

UK Company Formation

The UK company formation service allows non-UK residents to apply remotely from Albania. Company formation is completed in less than 3 hours, subject to Companies House processing times, weekends, bank holidays and the completeness and accuracy of the information provided.

An application may take longer where information is missing or incorrect or where technical issues affect processing.

Wise Business Account Referral

The package includes a referral for a Wise Business Account, which can provide a UK account number and sort code where the applicant is eligible.

Wise independently assesses every application and makes its own decision regarding account approval. Non-Residents UK Company Formation acts only as a referrer and cannot guarantee that an account will be approved.

The Wise application is separate from the company formation process and remains subject to Wise's eligibility, verification and compliance requirements.

Digital Certificate of Incorporation

Once the company has been incorporated, you receive a digital Certificate of Incorporation.

This document confirms the company's incorporation and contains important details relating to the newly formed company.

Digital Share Certificates

Digital Share Certificates are included for the company's shareholders.

They provide a record of the shares issued to the shareholders and form part of the company's corporate documentation.

Digital Memorandum of Association

The Digital Memorandum of Association is supplied with the incorporation documents.

It is one of the documents associated with the company's formation and forms part of the company's constitutional documentation.

Digital Articles of Association

Digital Articles of Association are also included.

The articles contain rules concerning the operation and management of the company and form part of its constitutional documentation.

Printed Company Documents

Printed copies of key company documents, including the Certificate of Incorporation and Share Certificates, are provided alongside the digital versions.

This gives you access to physical company records as well as digital copies that can be accessed remotely.

International Document Delivery

International document delivery is available for customers based in Albania.

Where physical company documents need to be delivered outside the UK, the service provides an international delivery option. Tracked international delivery is also available for documents where physical delivery is required.

Statutory Book Maintenance

The package includes maintenance of the company's statutory books.

Statutory records contain important information about the company and should be maintained as relevant company details change. Keeping these records organised can make ongoing company administration easier for founders managing their business from Albania.

Confirmation Statement Preparation and Filing

Confirmation Statement preparation and filing is included for the first year.

A Confirmation Statement is a regular Companies House filing used to confirm that the company's registered information remains current.

The service provides preparation and filing support during the included period, with any continuation depending on the applicable service arrangements.

UK Registered Office Address in N1 (London)

A UK registered office address in N1 (London) is included for the first year.

The registered office acts as the company's official UK address for Companies House and eligible official correspondence.

For a founder based in Albania, this means the company's registered office can be separate from your Albanian residential address.

Eligible correspondence received at the registered office can also be dealt with through the included mail forwarding arrangements.

Director Service Address

A Director Service Address is provided as part of the package.

The service address is used for relevant director correspondence and is publicly available for Companies House purposes. Using a dedicated service address can help keep your residential address separate from the public correspondence address associated with your directorship.

Registered Office Mail Forwarding

Registered office mail forwarding is included for the first year.

Eligible official government correspondence received at the N1 (London) registered office can be scanned and forwarded digitally in accordance with the applicable service terms.

This allows a founder living in Albania to receive eligible correspondence without needing to regularly access a UK address.

Where physical documents are required, international delivery options can be used subject to the relevant arrangements.

International Tracked Delivery

International tracked delivery is available when physical company documents need to be sent outside the UK.

For founders in Albania, this provides a way to receive physical company documentation while continuing to manage the business remotely.

Online Company Administration

The service includes access to an online user dashboard where relevant company documents and information can be accessed 24/7.

Having company information available online allows founders based in Albania to manage routine administration without needing to visit a UK office.

Priority 24/7 Customer Support

Priority 24/7 customer support is available for customers managing their UK company from Albania.

This provides an additional support channel for company formation and administration queries, including for founders managing their business outside normal UK working hours.

Simplified Administrative Process

The service brings company formation and several ongoing administration services together in one structure.

You provide the required company information, complete the relevant checks and proceed with the incorporation application remotely. After incorporation, the available address, document and administration services can continue to support the management of your UK company from Albania.

What Happens After Company Formation?

Directors remain responsible for ensuring that the company's required information, records and filings are properly maintained.

The service provides ongoing administrative support through statutory book maintenance, Confirmation Statement preparation and filing, registered office services, director service address arrangements and registered office mail forwarding.

Your location in Albania may also be relevant to tax, regulatory or reporting obligations. These responsibilities can depend on factors including where you live, where the company is managed, the company's activities and where those activities take place.

For specific UK, Albanian or international tax and regulatory advice, you should consult an appropriately qualified professional.
