PSC/RLE/ORP – edit details

This guide explains how to edit the details of a Person with Significant Control (PSC) or a Relevant Legal Entity (RLE) using Kudocs, including updating the PSC conditions.  

The action is available via:

  • The PSC/RLE’s entry under the Officers, PSCs & RLEs page
  • Quick action list in the PSC’s (or RLE’s) stakeholder record – ‘Edit stakeholder’

This action is only for making administrative changes to an existing PSC’s details or the reasons why they are a PSC. To completely remove or add a PSC/RLE you must complete the relevant process in Kudocs – see our Guides here and here

For ease, this guide refers to PSCs and RLEs only – however, the same methods apply to ORPs.

For more information about PSCs, RLEs or ORPs read our FAQ.

Make the change in Kudocs

You can use several routes within Kudocs to remove a PSC/RLE and update Companies House.
Step 1

Find the correct entry on the 'Officers, PSCs & RLEs' page

More detail
All current PSCs and/or RLEs will be listed under the heading 'PSCs & RLEs'. Each entry will show the current registered conditions.

Step 2

Select the 'Edit details' option

More detail
You can select this either a) directly from the 'Officers, PSCs & RLEs' page using the drop-down arrow, or b) by selecting 'View PSC' and then selecting 'Edit details' under the 'Edit stakeholder' quick action list.

Step 3

Edit the relevant details or add/remove PSC reasons

More detail
You can use the stakeholder record to edit the home address or other personal details of the PSC (or RLE as relevant).

To add or remove PSC conditions (reasons), select the relevant options under 'PSC details'. For each change under this section, you must provide the event date i.e. when the change happened as well as the 'Information confirmed' date i.e. when the company was made aware of the change. References to 'register entry' dates should be taken to mean the 'information confirmed' date.

Step 4

IMPORTANT! When you have entered all the PSC/RLE changes, press 'Update' at the bottom of the stakeholder record

More detail
Often you will need to make several changes to a PSC/RLE record at the same time e.g. amending both the shareholding and voting %s. Rather than submitting a separate filing after each change, you can make all the changes you need before pressing 'Update' so that Kudocs will submit a single filing to CoHse with all the changes.

However, you must remember to press 'Update' so that Kudocs knows that you are ready to update the records and CoHse. Don't forget!

Step 5

Implement the change

More detail
Review the information which you have updated in the stakeholder record and press 'Submit'.

Once confirmed, the PSC/RLE changes will be updated in Kudocs (stakeholder records and registers) and at CoHse. Kudocs will also run automatic checks for any discrepancies which may require review.
