Although it has long been regarded as best practice, new regulations have made it compulsory for certain business information to be present on corporate websites and e-mails or other electronic communications, including invoices and order forms.

 

The regulations apply to all limited companies and limited liability partnerships (LLPs) and are designed to ensure compliance with EU regulations relating to company law. Failure to display the required information can result in a fine.

 

The information required includes:

• The registered name of the company or LLP and any trading name;
• The registered number of the company or LLP and it’s place of registration; and
• The address of the registered office.

 

For further information see the Companies (Registrar, Languages and Trading Disclosures) Regulations 2006.
