Use the company number whenever possible and tell your agent which official fact, filing or change you need. It can keep dated registry evidence separate from interpretation.

What can Companies House data confirm?

Official records can evidence incorporation, status, officers, filing history and registered details when available. They do not necessarily describe current trading activity, ownership economics or commercial health.

Keep filings and conclusions separate

Ask the agent to retain filing dates and official source links, quote the exact record where material and label any business interpretation as inference.
