Business Address Legalities

Summary

The Companies Act 2006 does not specifically address using a rented address as a business address. Companies must have a registered office in the UK. Permission from the property owner is not explicitly required by the Act, but lease agreements may have restrictions. Local council regulations, such as those from Cherwell District Council, may also apply. Check lease terms and consult local regulations for compliance.
