File confirmation statement

This guide explains how to file your confirmation statement using Kudocs.  This includes reviewing all current information stored in Kudocs, previewing the CS01 filing, sending the confirmation statement to a third party for approval (internal or external; can be approved by multiple people) and then filing at Companies House.

The action is available via:

  • Company Dashboard
  • All actions.

Note, you do not need to pay for this filing – the cost is paid by Kudocs.

ECCTA/IDV Alert – from 18 November 2025, the confirmation statement must include UIDs (or ‘Personal Codes’) for all existing directors. All Kudocs processes will be updated to include this. For more details, read our FAQ here.

Step 2

Review all current company information stored on Kudocs. If changes are needed, Kudocs will guide you through the necessary processes.

More detail
All the information needed for the confirmation statement is already in Kudocs as part of the registers management service which Kudocs provides. All you need to do is review and confirm that the statement information is correct. If it is not, Kudocs will guide you through how to make the necessary changes.

For completeness, Kudocs includes a summary of all key entity information here - even though not all of that information is submitted in a confirmation statement. We explain what is and is not filed, but include a full summary for your peace of mind.

Step 3

Select the 'made up to' date.

More detail
A confirmation statement has a ‘made up to' date. This is the date shown at Companies House as the 'statement date' i.e. the date as at which the statement information is being confirmed as correct. You can select what date you want the confirmation statement to be made up to.

NOTE: Kudocs is a live data system - it uses the latest, live data when filing the confirmation statement. The data in Kudocs when the filing is submitted is the data submitted to Companies House. Therefore, if you select a 'made up to' date in the past, please ensure that the current data in Kudocs is the same as it was on that 'made up to' date. See our FAQ for more information and worked examples.

Step 4

Once complete, you can either file the statement or send it out for approval.

More detail
You can either file the confirmation statement immediately, or you can send it out for approval if needed.

This allows you to circulate a draft confirmation statement with colleagues, client contacts or external advisors etc. to check that the statement details are correct before filing.

You can send the draft statement out for multiple approvals before filing at Companies House. There is a full audit trail of each approval, including a certificate generated for your internal records, so you can track who has seen it and when. As well as sending out the draft statement for approval, you can also send selected entity registers and/or an entity summary report for cross-checking.
