Section 2: Replace with service address
If you’re a current serving officer, you must give a new address that you want to replace your home address.

Section 1: Document details
Enter the details of the documents that show the home address.
You must give the document type or the number and title of the form and the registration date. The registration date is the date that we registered the document.
Search the Companies House register to find which documents show your home address.
You can only remove your home address from the list of documents Companies House can suppress.
If your home address was used as the company’s registered office
You must list the original filing which gave your home address as the registered office. This could have been on incorporation or a previous change of registered office address.
Do not list the filing that changed the registered office from your home address to a different address, or we’ll reject your application.
Part 4: Authentication
Enter your printed name. You do not need to include a signature.
Part 5: Presenter contact details
Give an address we can use to contact you if your application is rejected.
How to pay the fee

It costs £30 to remove an address. You’ll need to pay for each document listed in your application.
We’ll reject your application if you do not pay the correct fee amount.
