A director's details — such as their name, service address, or nationality — can change over time, and Companies House needs to be kept informed so the public register stays accurate.

1. Identify What's Changed

Common changes include a director's residential or service address, a legal name change, or updated nationality details.

2. File the Change With Companies House

Director detail changes are generally reported online, using the relevant change-of-details filing.

3. Update Your Statutory Registers

Reflect the change in your company's own register of directors, alongside the Companies House filing.
