Companies House (CH) has confirmed that Companies House Direct (CHD) and WebCHeck are closing on the 30 November 2023.

Users should use the Find and update company information service instead.

Current features include:

  • advanced company search,
  • dissolved company search,
  • company snapshot reports,
  • alphabetical search, and
  • ordering facility for certificates, certified documents and missing images.

The Find and update company information service is a fully accessible service and has already replaced most of the functionality provided by CHD and WebCHeck.

All records of companies dissolved since January 2010 are available on the Find and update company information service. CH are continuing to keep records of dissolved companies for 20 years from the date of dissolution, and their long-term intention is to make all these records available for free on the Find and update company information service.
