Companies House announces WebFiling account access to move to GOV.UK One Login from 13 October 2025
Companies House has announced that, from 13 October 2025, customers will need to use GOV.UK One Login to access their WebFiling accounts. Users are required to link their existing WebFiling accounts to GOV.UK One Login, with each account able to connect to only one login. Anyone sharing access to an account will need to create separate GOV.UK One Login accounts using different email addresses. The new system provides enhanced security through two-factor authentication and will eventually replace all other GOV.UK sign-in methods, including Government Gateway. In preparation for the change, users are advised to update their email addresses and set up their GOV.UK One Login accounts ahead of the October 2025 deadline.
