Share Transfers

We can assist with a change to the share structure of your company.

Transferring shares is different depending on whether you have completed the purchase of your property or not and the nature of the share transfer. Your request may, for example, need to be processed with the assistance of a third party accounting firm.

More information on the share transfer process and pricing can be provided upon request. Please contact gethelp@getground.co.uk if you require a share transfer.

Late Submission of Accounting Documents or Filing after the Deadline

All GetGround companies are able to submit their accounting documents 9 months prior to the filing deadline. GetGround will also send email reminders and a ‘Task’ will appear on the dashboard of every company that needs to file accounts.

In the event that you submit your documents and there is less than 6 weeks left between when they were submitted and the filing deadline or you require us to prepare and file the accounts after the filing deadline, we treat these accounts as needing to be expedited and therefore apply a fee of £249 + VAT to prepare these accounts.

We will also liaise with Companies House on your behalf where necessary.

Company Restoration

In the event that Companies House strikes your company from the Companies House register we can help to restore your company.

We charge a fee of £799 + VAT for this service. We will carry out the following service on your behalf:

  • liaising with Companies House to confirm the fees and documents that are required to be submitted for your company restoration application;
  • drafting your company restoration application form and any additional forms that are required;
  • arranging for all documents to be posted to Companies House for processing; and
  • managing the payment of fees and late filing penalties with Companies House.

Please note that, depending on your company's circumstances, there may be additional third party fees which are payable in addition to GetGround's fee. Such fees may include:

  • Companies House administrative restoration filing fees;
  • Companies House late filing penalties if your company's accounts are overdue (if applicable);
