By appointment

Visit our Edinburgh office

Prefer to sit down with a person? Book a time at our office in Leith, Edinburgh, and a dedicated agent will be ready for you — to form your company, check your ID or help with anything on your file.

In short: Our office is at 9a Tinto Place, Edinburgh EH6 5GD, open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Visits are by appointment, so a dedicated agent is free to help you. You can choose a package and form a company, have your identity documents checked in person (we are a Companies House ACSP), sign and collect documents, and get help with filings and addresses. Book by phone on 0131 322 1309, by email or through our contact page.

What you can do at our office

Choose a package and form your company

Talk through which package suits you, check your company name and complete the details with an agent. We submit to Companies House for you.

Have your ID checked in person

As a Companies House ACSP we verify directors and PSCs. Bring your passport or photo ID and proof of address and we can check them with you.

Sign and collect documents

Sign resolutions, forms and share certificates, and collect printed company documents instead of waiting for the post.

Filings and changes

Get help with your confirmation statement, director and shareholder changes, a change of name or registered office, and other Companies House filings.

Addresses and virtual office

Set up a registered office or an Edinburgh virtual office at a central Edinburgh address, so your home address stays off the public register.

Business bank account

Talk through business bank account options and get the company documents banks usually ask for. Each bank makes its own decision.

How to book a visit

We see clients by appointment only. That way a dedicated agent sets time aside for you, has your file ready and you do not wait. To book:

  1. Call us on 0131 322 1309, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
  2. Or email info@formmycompany.co.uk, or send a message through our contact page.
  3. Tell us what you would like to do, and who is coming. If you are forming a company or verifying your identity, we will tell you exactly which documents to bring.

If you already have an order, you can also ask for an appointment from the message tab in your client account.

What to bring

  • a valid passport or other government-issued photo ID for each person being verified
  • a recent proof of home address, such as a bank statement or utility bill
  • your order number or company name, if you already have one
  • any documents you want us to look at, sign or certify

Please do not post or email copies of passports. If we need ID before your visit, we will ask you to upload it securely in your client account.

Help in your language

We support clients in English, Lithuanian, Russian, French, German, Italian and Polish by email and phone. If you would like your visit in a language other than English, mention it when you book and we will tell you what we can arrange.

Serving all of Scotland and the UK

You do not have to come to Edinburgh to work with us. Most clients across Scotland, the rest of the UK and abroad do everything online: ordering, identity checks, signing and documents are all handled remotely, and you can reach the same team by phone and email. Our Edinburgh company formation guide explains how to set up a company for an Edinburgh business.

If you need an address rather than a visit, see our Registered Office Address and Edinburgh Virtual Office services. Both use a central Edinburgh address — not our office address above — and we confirm the full address after your order and identity checks.

Finding us

Our office is at 9a Tinto Place in Leith, in the north of Edinburgh (postcode EH6 5GD). Use the map links on this page for directions, and if you have any access needs, let us know when you book.

Frequently asked questions

Can I visit your office without an appointment?

Please book first. Visits are by appointment only, so a dedicated agent is free to see you and has your file ready. Call 0131 322 1309 or contact us.

Can you verify my identity for Companies House in person?

Yes. We are a Companies House Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP). Bring your passport or photo ID and a proof of address, and we can check them with you as part of our identity verification service.

Do I need to visit to form a company?

No. Most clients form their company fully online. A visit is there if you prefer to talk it through face to face or want to sign and collect documents in person.

Can I use your office address as my registered office?

No. Our office address is for visits and correspondence with us. Our Registered Office Address service gives your company a central Edinburgh address, which we confirm after your order and identity checks.

Which areas do you serve?

All of the UK and clients abroad. We form companies in Scotland, England and Wales, and Northern Ireland, and you can work with us remotely from anywhere.

What are your opening hours?

Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm UK time. Appointments are arranged within these hours.
