Companies House produces quarterly reports about those companies newly incorporated to and removed from the register, and the total and effective register sizes. Additional information is provided on company liquidations and other insolvency procedures.
Information is provided for all companies, for public companies and for limited liability partnerships (LLPs). Tables cover the UK as a whole, and England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland individually.
The full statistical report is currently provided in English only. If you would like to see a Welsh translation of future versions of this report, contact statistics@companieshouse.gov.uk.
Revision notice
We have corrected an error in the datasets for England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland for the “Insolvencies and Liquidations” tabs (“d” Tables). In these tables only a discrepancy occurred in the 2020 quarters 2 and 3 statistics due to a processing error.
The calendar year totals for 2020 across all tables in the 2021 quarter 1 publication were missing. We have corrected this omission.
We have corrected an error in the datasets for England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland for the “In the course of removal” and “Effective numbers on register at end of period” in the “Company Register Activity” tabs (“a”, “b” and “c” Tables). In these tables only a discrepancy occurred in the 2021 quarter 1 statistics due to a processing error.
The values have now been calculated and the release and all data have been updated on 24 June 2021. We apologise for any inconvenience.
