From local Glasgow accountants to Scotland's leading Companies House Authorised Agent for identity verification
LPA Accountancy was founded to address a critical need: helping businesses and directors navigate the increasingly complex landscape of corporate compliance in the UK. Based in Glasgow at 22 Milnpark Street, G41 1BB, we've grown from a local accountancy practice to become a recognized Companies House Authorised Agent providing comprehensive Companies House Identity Verification services.
When the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 (ECCTA) introduced mandatory identity verification for all directors and PSCs, we saw an opportunity to specialize. We invested heavily in becoming a fully authorized ACSP (Authorised Corporate Service Provider), supervised by HMRC under Money Laundering Regulations.
Today, as a trusted Companies House Authorised Agent, we offer the most comprehensive Director ID Verification UK service available. Our expertise spans both UK residents and international directors, with specialist knowledge in cross-border compliance.

How we ensure your Companies House Authorised Agent verification is completed correctly
When you submit your documents to our Companies House Authorised Agent team, we conduct an immediate preliminary review to ensure all required documents are present and meet Companies House standards. This includes checking your passport or driving licence is in-date, your proof of address is dated within the last 3 months, and all documents are clear and legible. Our team has reviewed thousands of verification applications and can quickly identify potential issues before formal submission, significantly reducing rejection rates.
As an HMRC-supervised ACSP, we are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering checks on all verification applications. This involves verifying your identity against official databases, conducting sanctions screening, and ensuring all documentation is authentic. Our robust AML procedures not only satisfy regulatory requirements but also protect you and your company from potential fraud. These checks are conducted securely and confidentially, with all data encrypted and stored in compliance with GDPR regulations.
To prevent identity fraud, we conduct digital liveness verification checks as part of our Director ID Verification UK process. This biometric technology ensures the person presenting the identification documents is physically present during the verification process, not using stolen or historical images. The liveness check takes just minutes to complete via our secure portal and provides an additional layer of security that protects both you and Companies House from fraudulent applications.
Once all checks are complete, our Companies House Authorised Agent team prepares and submits your verification statement directly to Companies House. This official statement confirms we have verified your identity in accordance with ECCTA 2023 requirements. Companies House then issues your unique 11-character verification code (Companies House Personal Code) directly to your email address. This code is valid for all your current and future UK company roles as a director, PSC, or company secretary.
