How long does it take for Companies House to register an SE document?
SE documents can be complex and require detailed checks to be made. Companies House aims to process all SE documents within 5 days of receipt. It is advised that SE’s working to a tight deadline submit documents in plenty of time. For important documents a courier service is recommended. Companies House cannot guarantee the registration of any SE document at a specific time or date. Companies House does not register documents on days when the office is closed (including Bank Holidays).
