Companies House are making some changes to the login for the find and update company information service.
These changes are a part of Companies House’s commitment to introduce identity verification via Gov.uk One Login. They will be implemented on 12 February 2025.
The changes only affect the email, password and new account registration screens on CH web services and RESTful API services, including filing services.
The changes do not affect XML Gateway filings in any way.
When users login in to an existing account, the only change you will notice is that email and password are collected across two screens from 12 February 2025, rather than collected on one screen.
Your end users will be unaffected; however, you will need to review any test automation you have on those steps currently. To account for the email and password being collected over two screens instead of one, from 12 February 2025
Please note, sandbox will be updated on release to reflect the changes made in live.
