Barclays Business Introducer Zone

Faster company formation submissions

Changes to our service

From 10 May 2025, you’ll no longer be able to form companies using our Business Introducer Zone.

We’ll be removing the New Company Formations page on this date. This means you won’t be able to submit any new formation requests or receive free and reduced-price company formation submissions to Companies House.

We’ll still process any new company formations showing as ‘approved’ on our Business Introducer Zone until then.

Our current service

Registered practices can submit 10 company formations for free, then it’s £12.50 + VAT for each submission after that.

• A simple company formation process all on one system
• Successful formation confirmation is usually within 24 to 48 working hours. This is subject to Companies House’s processing times and incorporation regulations. Their working hours are 9am to 5:50pm, Monday to Friday, except bank holidays.
