The Mailroom · on every plan

Six things about your mail that no other formation agent offers

Every letter is opened, scanned and filed in our own buildings, by our own team, on our own software – so the features below are built in, not bolted on.

See how your Mailroom works ›
Unlimited · every planEvery letter scanned – not just government post

HMRC, Companies House, your bank, your customers and suppliers: all of your mail, scanned to your dashboard the next working day. No per-letter fee, no monthly cap.

Filed, not forwardedSeven folders, filled for you

HMRC · Companies House · Government & regulators · Bank & finance · Business · Personal · Junk. Every scan a searchable PDF, statutory post flagged the moment it lands.

Gated accessYour accountant sees the HMRC folder – and nothing else

Give your accountant, bookkeeper or assistant their own login to the folders you choose. Read-only, emailed when something lands, every open on the audit trail, revoked in a click.

Add-on · £19.99 a month2-Hour Priority Scanning

Every letter in your dashboard within two working hours of arriving, timed from the CCTV at the letterbox and shown on each item. Miss it and that month’s fee is refunded. Included in E-Commerce Hub.

Add-on · £12.99 a monthMail Spam Filter

Circulars, marketing mailers and duplicate statements filed to your Junk folder before they reach you – never binned unread, and statutory post is never filtered. Your dashboard stays signal.

Originals & parcelsHeld 90 days, posted on at cost, or collected

Ask from the scan and the original is posted on at Royal Mail cost plus £1.25. Parcels up to 9 kg go into your building’s secure box, logged the same day; DHL next working day £14.99.

Check your company name is available

Checked live against the Companies House register the moment you type it. Free, no sign-up, and it tells you what most checkers do not – whether your name is too close to something already registered, and whether it uses a word that needs approval.

Included in every formation package

Identity verification for up to four directors, included

Every director and person with significant control has had to verify their identity with Companies House since 18 November 2025. We are an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (AP021384), so we verify you ourselves and your personal Companies House code comes from us – for up to four directors, included in the price you see. Others advertise it as free and then bill for the parts that are not: an hourly rate for an overseas review, or a per-person fee disclosed after incorporation. Additional directors beyond four are £149.99 each, and we tell you before we charge it.

4 DIRECTORS VERIFIED – INCLUDED4 directors included

After you order

What happens after you order

We keep you informed at every stage. Here is exactly what happens once your order is placed.

Track your application live from your account – no “please allow 24 hours” email, no waiting for a human to key it in.

Within minutes
Identity checks pass

Passport chip read, likeness matched, sanctions screened – from your phone, for every director.

Same working day
Filed with Companies House

Once your checks pass, your application goes straight into the Companies House queue through our direct connection.

3–24 hours
Approved and live

Your certificate and authentication code land in your document vault. Your registered office and director addresses go live at the same moment.

From day one
Mail scanning starts

Every letter to your company is opened, scanned and in your inbox – every letter, unlimited, included.

Why Vaulex Group

Why register your company with Vaulex Group?

Most formation agents are a checkout and a mailbox. We are a regulated provider that builds and runs every part of the service ourselves – and prices it so it never surprises you.

Regulated, not just registered

Supervised by HMRC as a Trust or Company Service Provider and authorised by Companies House as an ACSP. Every client is identity-checked before we act for them.

One set monthly fee

No setup fees, no price rise, no exit fee. The price you join on is the price you stay on, and the Companies House fee is passed on with nothing added.

Fast, compliant set-up

Identity checks to the Companies House standard and a direct Companies House connection – most companies approved in 3 to 24 hours, with Same-Day Company Formation available on every plan.

Named buildings, strictly capped

The Courtyard, The Annexe and The Exchange at Vaulex House – each individually listed on the Royal Mail Postcode Address File, with occupancy strictly capped so your address never reads as a mass-registration one.

Unlimited mail scanning

Every letter, on every plan, scanned to your dashboard – no per-item fees, no scanning credits, no monthly cap.

Everything under one roof

Phone numbers, mail scanning, websites, email and cloud drive are built and run by our own team, never handed to a third party – one dashboard, one monthly invoice.

Plans from £24.99 a month plus the £100 Companies House fee. No setup fees. Cancel any time.

Regulated, and you can check it

Banking & payments

Business bank account introductions, included

Your company needs somewhere to bank before it can trade. Through the banking programme built into our platform we can put you in front of a provider as soon as you are formed – no charge, no obligation, and nothing in your plan changes if you would rather arrange your own.

Providers currently available through the programme include Barclays, Lloyds Bank, NatWest, Monzo and Tide, with SumUp for card payments. The introduction is made through the platform; the account and the decision are entirely between you and the bank.

Barclays

A high-street business account, introduced once your company is formed

  • Business current account with online and app banking
  • UK branches and telephone support
  • For UK-resident directors with a UK address
  • The application and the decision are between you and Barclays
Tide

Open a Tide business account in minutes

  • Designed for UK startups and small businesses
  • Smart tools to manage your finances from day one

Included, not invoiced

No admin fees – the parts a computer does are in the price

Charging you for an automated process is wrong. Every one of these is included in every plan:

The only charges on a new company are your monthly plan and the £100 Companies House fee, shown separately and passed straight through.

Your addresses explained

Registered office, service address and trading address – explained

Registered office address

The legal address of your company on the public register – where Companies House and HMRC write to you. Every UK company must have one.

If you use your home address, it is published on the public register and stays visible in historic filings.

Included in every formation plan ›

Director's service address

Every director and PSC must give a correspondence address – also published. Ours keeps home addresses private for up to four directors.

Without one, each director's home address goes on their public record.

Included for up to four directors ›

Business trading address

The address on your website, invoices and letterheads – what customers, suppliers and the bank see. A named building at a real street address reads like a real business.

In E-Commerce Hub and virtual office plans ›

Your account

Everything in one dashboard

Everything a company generates – mail, documents, deadlines – in one place, from day one.

Every letter, scanned & filed

Opened and scanned in the building it arrives at, filed into folders – HMRC, Companies House, bank, business – with statutory post flagged. How your Mailroom works ›

All company documents

Certificate, articles, registers and share certificates – stored and downloadable.

Deadline reminders

Confirmation statement and accounts dates tracked, with reminders before anything is due.

Add services in two clicks

Phone line, VAT support, next-working-day forwarding – add or remove as you grow.

Share a folder with your accountant

They see the HMRC folder and nothing else – read-only, every open logged, revoked in a click.

Change or cancel any time

Monthly rolling, or yearly with two months free – managed in the dashboard, no phone calls, no exit fees.

Fully transparent. Fully compliant.

HMRC-supervised and Companies House-authorised

FAQs

Company formation FAQs

Most applications submitted on a working day are approved by Companies House within 3 to 24 hours. Need it guaranteed today? Same-day formation is available as an add-on.

It is the Companies House government charge on every UK incorporation, whoever forms your company. We pass it through with nothing added and show it before you pay – many providers bury it in the checkout or mark it up.

A company name, your directors and share split, and about 15 minutes to verify your identity – a passport chip read on your phone. We guide you through all of it.

Yes. Verification is now a legal requirement for every director and PSC. We are a Companies House-authorised agent (ACSP), so verification and personal Companies House codes for up to four directors are included – not sold back to you as an extra.

You can – but it is published on the public register, visible to anyone, permanently. Every plan includes a registered office and a service address for up to four directors, so home addresses stay private.

Your plan simply rolls monthly – £24.99 to £79.99 depending on your plan – and you can cancel any time. No lock-in, no price rise, no exit fees.

No. We are an HMRC-supervised TCSP, so every client is identity-checked and screened before we act. That is what keeps our buildings' addresses clean with banks and HMRC – and why yours stays credible.

Price lock

The price you join on is the price you stay on
