What you will be asked to supply

These are collected through a resumable intake after you choose the package. Nothing is filed until the pack is complete.

  • Identity evidence for every beneficial owner and director

    Certified identity and address evidence for each individual who owns or controls the company, plus corporate documents where a shareholder is itself an entity.

  • Confirmed ownership and control structure

    Shareholders and holdings, directors including the resident director, and the controllers who must be registered.

    A specific description of what the company will do, in which markets, and with which counterparties. Regulated or restricted activities change both the filing path and the licensing path.

Process

How this package is delivered

The registry stages are marked. Their outcome and timing belong to the authority, and the platform reports only what the authority records.

  1. Structure confirmed

    You

    You confirm the entity type, ownership and control structure, and the intended business activity. Anything that changes the filing path is surfaced here, not after payment.

  2. Intake and document collection

    You

    A structured intake collects identity evidence, structure details and the documents the registry expects. You can save and resume it.

  3. Filing pack prepared by the appointed provider

    Qualified provider

    A qualified corporate service provider prepares the constitutional documents and the filing pack, and raises information requests where something is missing.

  4. Resident director and secretary position resolved

    You

    The resident-director requirement is resolved before filing, either from your own team or through a provider arrangement.

  5. Filed with the registry

    Qualified provider

    The filing is submitted to the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority. From this point the outcome is in the authority's hands and the platform reports its state, it does not predict it.

  6. Registry processing

    External authorityOutcome not controlled by ZKCAP

    The authority reviews the filing. It may accept it, raise an objection, or ask for further information. Each of those states is shown as it happens.

  7. Incorporation outcome recorded

    External authorityOutcome not controlled by ZKCAP

    Acceptance produces the registry documents and the company record set. A rejection or objection opens a recovery path with the provider rather than ending the project.

  8. Post-formation set-up and obligations

    ZKCAP

    Company records are assembled in your vault, first-period appointments are registered, and the recurring obligations become tracked deadlines.

After completion

Obligations that begin once the company exists

Formation is the start of a maintenance cycle. These become tracked deadlines in your workspace.

  • Annual return and annual general meeting obligations

    Annual

    Filed with the registrar after the financial statements are finalised.

Commercial terms

These values are set by business decisions that have not been taken yet. The platform shows the gap rather than an estimate, so nothing here can be mistaken for a quoted figure.

Next

What usually follows

  • Banking readiness

    A new entity normally needs an account before it can trade. A readiness review first avoids an avoidable decline.

  • Corporate maintenance

    Registers, filings and statutory roles can be handled continuously by a verified provider.

  • Compare structures

    If the entity type is still open, compare the published structures before committing to a filing.

Nothing is charged at this step.
