If someone sells or transfers shares to someone else in a private limited company, what is the maximum period they are allowed before they must inform Companies House? TIA. I know your time is precious, seeking new ways to...no I won't bother.
The share transfer has to be lodged at the company's registered office. The transfer has to be 'stamped' by HMRC stamp office (subject to certain value limits). Companies House are informed at the time the annual return is filed which could be anything up to a year after the transfer took place.
