It is a legal requirement for Limited Companies to display their Registered Name at the Company’s Registered Address and also at other places where they carry on their business. If, for example, you have a number of schools or locations within your Academy’s Limited Company, it is advisable to display a sign at each of them.
This can be achieved by producing your own compliant signage, but why not display one of our easy to order, impressive and professionally produced Academy School Company Registration Plaques?
The Companies Act requires that your Company Registration Plaque or self-produced compliant signage, must be positioned so that it may be easily seen by any visitor to the company’s premises.
Our Academy School Company Registration Plaques are designed to be an impressive, cost effective and convenient solution to assist you to meet the statutory signage requirements and to make an impressive statement about the professionalism of your Academy School.
These plaques are available in two sizes, and with two metal and backboard colour options.
Our Academy School plaques are designed for internal display only and can be easily fixed to an internal wall using two small picture hooks or two small screws with rawlplugs (for a more permanent fixing). Please check that your wall is suitable to fix to and check to avoid wires and pipes prior to fixing. Please seek professional fitting advice where necessary. Fixings are not supplied.
More details on the Statutory Requirements:
Regulations do not require the sign to be displayed at a specific place. Your Registered Company Name and Address Plaque or compliant signage “must be positioned so that it may be easily seen by any visitor to the company’s premises.” Importantly, the sign does not need to be on the outside of a building.
The Companies Act requires a limited company to display its registered name at the company’s registered office (and inspection place if one has been provided).
In addition, the company name and registered address should also be displayed at any other places where the company carries on its business.
If, for example, you have a number of schools or locations within your Academy’s Limited Company, it is advisable to display a sign at each of them.
Since 1st October 2008, dormant limited companies (those which are not trading) are now exempt from this rule.
In a situation where a limited company shares a building with five or more other companies, “each company is only required to display its registered name for at least fifteen continuous seconds at least once in every three minutes.”
