What is ACSP Identity Verification?

Under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023, individuals with a significant role at a company — including directors, PSCs and LLP members — must verify their identity with Companies House.

This verification must be carried out either directly with Companies House, or through an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) like Simpleledger. We make the process fast and straightforward.

Once verified, your status is confirmed with Companies House and linked to your company filings — giving you full compliance with the new transparency requirements.
