Will the signature of a Justice of the Peace (or other specially qualified person) be required as a witness to any of the documents generated by UKcorporator?
No. To explain further, as a result of amendments to the law effective as from 1 October 2009 (as part of the final implementation of the Companies Act 2006) no such signature is required. Furthermore, as UKcorporator will use the Companies House electronic filing system, no signatures at all need to be provided to achieve registration of the company. (Nevertheless, as you will see when you use UKcorporator, clear guidance is given recommending that certain of the documents held by the new company be signed for the company’s internal purposes.
