Overseas Entity Verification Check

The Register of Overseas Entities applies to all overseas companies that wish to buy, sell or transfer property or land in the UK. ​

These companies must register with UK Companies House and disclose the beneficial owners of the company.

This OE VFO1 document is used to confirm that verification checks have been completed on all beneficial owners and managing officers of an overseas entity.

Companies House will not show:

• home addresses
• full dates of birth – only the month and year will be shown
• the agent assurance code
• the date verification checks were completed
• information about trusts
• email addresses
