Director identity verification
Fyling helps your practice manage identity verification for every director and person with significant control. Record a check against Companies House's identity verification standard, collect personal codes through a secure link, and see each PSC's verification window, with the statement ready to prepare.
What it does for your practice
- A guided check that refuses a verified outcome unless the evidence meets Companies House's standard.
- One request asks every person whose code you do not hold, and chases the ones who do not answer.
- Each PSC's verification window, shown as open, upcoming, missed or filed.
- Personal codes are stored encrypted, and only the last two characters are ever shown.
- An inspection export of every verification record.
How it works
- 1
See which directors and PSCs have a personal code on file, across every client.
- 2
Ask the rest by secure link. Fyling chases on your schedule and tells the client's partner if someone stays silent.
- 3
Record any identity check your practice carries out, against the standard.
- 4
Prepare the PSC verification statement in its window, and the code goes with appointments and confirmation statements.
Who it is for
Practices that verify identities for their clients' directors and PSCs, including authorised corporate service providers, and practices that collect codes verified elsewhere.
Your practice stays the filer. Fyling is the software your team uses to prepare, check and send the work.
Questions
Does Fyling verify identities itself?
No. Your practice carries out the check, or the person verifies with Companies House directly. Fyling records the check and holds the code securely.
How do people send their personal code?
Through a single-use secure link. The code is encrypted as soon as it arrives and is never shown again in full.
Where is the code used?
In director appointments, confirmation statements and PSC verification statements, so it is entered once.
