Share Services FAQs

How does the service work?

You'll receive an automated email from us requesting details of the changes to shareholding. Simply respond to the email with the required details and we will prepare the relevant forms and resolutions. These documents will be uploaded to your online account. You should print, sign and keep for your own records. We will also prepare a Confirmation Statement with the new shareholding information. Once prepared we will email you and request that you review the Confirmation Statement. If you're happy with the Confirmation Statement, you can accept it. It will then be filed with Companies House.

What is stamp duty?

For shares over £1,000, the J30 stock transfer form is required to be stamped by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). The payment for this is known as stamp duty and is currently 0.5% of the share amount, rounded to the nearest £5.

For example, to transfer shares valued at £1,800, 0.5 x 1800 = £9.00 so a £10 stamp duty fee is payable.

How do I pay the stamp duty?

For all share transfers valued over £1,000, we recommend speaking with a solicitor for further information.

What class of shares can be issued?

Currently, shares of the same class/value as the company's initial shares can be issued. We do not get involved in creating or issuing new classes of shares.

How many shares can be issued at any one time?

There is no maximum on the amount of shares that can be issued.

  • The name and address of the person who is transferring the shares
  • The name and address of the person who is receiving the shares
