Cost of operating
Band: Low
- Setup (USD): $130–800
- Annual (USD): $500–3000
Companies House formation is very cheap (~£100–124). Cost shifts to the confirmation statement, an accountant, and possibly an audit above thresholds. A lean Ltd with no UK employees can stay reasonable; VAT, payroll or local substance quickly raises professional fees. High credibility, low entry ticket.
