| Legal Requirements to Register an LTD | | |
A private company limited by shares in England and Wales must have at least one director, one shareholder, and may have a secretary.
You need at least one person to form this type of company. If there is only one director, and that director is a natural person in your company, that director can also act as the secretary.
A company must have at least one director who is a natural person. This requirement is met if the office of director is held by a natural person as a corporation sole or otherwise by virtue of an office.
You can register a sole director' company, if you are familiar with the secretaries duties and responsibilities, because all of them belongs to a sole director.
The directors and secretary of your company can also be shareholders.
The Companies Act imposes no restriction on the minimum age of company directors. However Companies House will actively discourage the appointment of anyone under the age of 16 from taking up a company directorship on the grounds that the individuals concerned may not fully understand the legal liabilities that go with the position and for the most part will not have the experience necessary to perform the duties of a company director.
Under the Companies Act 2006, there is no restriction on any or all of the members/shareholders being from an overseas country (i.e. outside the United Kingdom in terms of residency, domicile, citizenship, place of incorporation or all or any of those concepts).
There is no requirement for the officers of your company to be UK citizens or residents, nor for them to hold valid work permits.
Owning, or being an officer of a UK company does not, however, grant you any right to live or work in the UK if you are a foreign national.
Your company must have a registered office address within England or Wales; this is the official address of your company and will be on the public record as such.
Your company must hold its official company documents at its registered office address: its register of shareholders, and its constitutional documents.
So long as you maintain a registered office address in England or Wales, you can conduct your business from any place in the world: you do not have to run your business from your registered office address.

| | 41 | Penalties on conviction
| | | (1) In section 33 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (offence of unauthorised or harmful deposit etc of waste), for subsections (8) and (9) (penalties) substitute-

| | | (a) on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or a fine not exceeding £50,000 or both; | | | (b) on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years or a fine or both." |
| | | (2) Subsection (1) does not have effect in relation to offences committed before the commencement of this section.
| | | (3) In relation to offences committed after the commencement of this section but before the commencement of section 154(1) of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (c. 44), the amendment made by this section has effect as if for "12 months" there were substituted "6 months".

| | | | "33A | Section 33 offences: investigation and enforcement costs
| | (1) This section applies where a person is convicted of an offence under section 33 above in respect of a contravention of subsection (1) of that section.
| | | (2) The court by or before which the offender is convicted may make an order requiring him to pay to an enforcement authority a sum which appears to the court not to exceed the costs arising from-
| | | (a) investigations of the enforcement authority which resulted in the conviction; and | | | (b) the seizure by the enforcement authority under section 34B below of a vehicle involved in the offence. | | | (3) The costs arising from the seizure of a vehicle as specified in subsection (2)(b) above may include the cost of disposing of the contents of the vehicle.
| | | (4) The power of a court to make an order under this section is in addition to its power to make an order under section 18 of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 (award of costs against accused).

| | (1) This section applies where a person is convicted of an offence under section 33 above in respect of a contravention of subsection (1) of that section consisting of the deposit or disposal of controlled waste.
| | | (2) The reference in section 130(1)(a) of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (compensation orders) to loss or damage resulting from the offence includes costs incurred or to be incurred by a relevant person in-
| | | (a) removing the waste deposited or disposed of in or on the land; | | | (b) taking other steps to eliminate or reduce the consequences of the deposit or disposal; or | | | | | | (3) In subsection (2) above "relevant person" means-

| | | | "(8A) An authority may not recover costs under subsection (8) above if a compensation order has been made under section 130 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 in favour of the authority in respect of any part of those costs.

| | | (2) The court by or before which the offender is convicted may make an order under this section if-
| | | (a) the court is satisfied that a vehicle was used in or for the purposes of the commission of the offence; and | | | (b) at the time of his conviction the offender has rights in the vehicle. | | | (3) An order under this section operates to deprive the offender of his rights in the vehicle (including its fuel) at the time of his conviction and to vest those rights in the relevant enforcement authority.
| | | (4) In a case where a vehicle has been seized under section 34B below and the offender retains rights in any of the vehicle's contents, an order under this section may, if and to the extent that it so specifies, deprive the offender of those rights and vest them in the relevant enforcement authority.
| | | (5) Where an order under this section is made, the relevant enforcement authority may take possession of the vehicle (if it has not already done so under section 34C below).
| | | (6) The court may make an order under this section whether or not it also deals with the offender in any other way in respect of the offence of which he is convicted.
| | | (7) In considering whether to make an order under this section a court must in particular have regard to-
| | | (a) the value of the vehicle; | | | (b) the likely financial and other effects on the offender of the making of the order (taken together with any other order that the court contemplates making); | | | (c) the offender's need to use the vehicle for lawful purposes; | | | (d) whether, in a case where it appears to the court that the offender is engaged in a business which consists wholly or partly in activities which are unlawful by virtue of section 33 above, the making of the order is likely to inhibit the offender from engaging in further such activities. | | | (8) Section 143 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (power to deprive offender of property) does not apply in any case where this section applies.
| | | (9) For the purposes of this section, where a vehicle or its contents have been seized under section 34B below in connection with the offence referred to in subsection (1) above, any transfer by the offender after the seizure and before his conviction of any of his rights in the vehicle or its contents is of no effect.
| | | (10) In this section-
| | | "relevant enforcement authority" means- | | | (a) the Environment Agency, where the proceedings in respect of the offence have been brought by or on behalf of the Agency, or
| | | (b) in any other case, the waste collection authority in whose area the offence was committed;
| | | "vehicle" means any motor vehicle or trailer within the meaning of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 or any mobile plant." |
| | | (2) This section does not have effect in relation to an offence under section 33 of that Act committed before the commencement of this section.
| | |

| | | (12) The appropriate person may by regulations restrict the extent to which, and the circumstances in which, an enforcement authority may make provision under subsection (11) above.
| | | (13) In any proceedings a certificate which-
| | | (a) purports to be signed on behalf of the chief finance officer of the enforcement authority, and | | | (b) states that payment of a fixed penalty was or was not received by a date specified in the certificate, | | | is evidence of the facts stated.
