FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything international founders need to know about starting and running a UK company with Launchese.
How do I register a UK company as a non-resident?
You can register a UK limited company entirely online, without visiting the UK. We handle the Companies House filing and guide you through banking, accounting and compliance, all from wherever you are.
What's included in a Launchese plan?
Every plan includes your company set-up and support from our team. Higher plans add a London address, banking and payments help, VAT and compliance services. Compare plans to see what's in each.
Do I need to visit the UK to open a business bank account?
No. Launchese partners with online banks that work with non-resident company directors. You will typically need proof of identity and proof of address to verify your account.
Why should international founders start a company in the UK?
A UK company gives you a trusted business reputation and access to payment gateways, business banking and funding that may not be available in your home country.
How is Launchese different from a formation agent?
Most formation agents stop once your company is registered. We stay with you: banking and payment introductions, accounting, compliance and advice from a team that has built e-commerce businesses itself.
