UK Companies Registration Information
Limited companies in the UK must include certain regulatory information on their websites and in their e-mails from 1 January 2007 or risk breaching the Companies Act 1985. Every company now has to list its registration number, place of registration and registered office address in legible characters on its website. The information must also appear in e-mails and online order forms. This data is already required on business letters but the duty has been extended to websites, order forms and electronic documents by an amendment to the law.
UK Address from Postcode
This allows your customer to easily enter their address details from their UK postcode. This helps create a much more professional appearance to your website and removes a large part of the form filling that could put of potential customers. It also reduces the potential for small mistakes in the address that could cause address credit card verification errors and deliveries going astray. This functionality uses the PostcodeAnywhere service which cost from 1.5p per address look-up. |
