Companies House published a new list of Authorised Corporate Service Providers today. The guidance says, “This list includes details of businesses and sole traders that have registered as an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP).” It adds, “This is also known as an authorised agent.”
That gives accountants, formation agents and SME directors an immediate check before they hand over the next filing.
The immediate use is practical. Before the next filing, a business can check whether its intermediary appears on the published list as an authorised agent.
The list covers businesses and sole traders, which matters because many smaller firms still use sole-practitioner advisers. The public record now sets out a clearer sequence. An agent says it can act. Companies House shows whether it is registered. The next filing can then be read in that context.
For our purposes, the evidence is the published list itself, not a hidden risk score. The value sits in the relationship between that list, the filing history and the party acting for the company.

In short, the useful signal here is sequence, not volume. When those records line up, a creditor gets a cleaner audit trail around who handled a submission. When they do not, that is a prompt to verify the filing route before relying on it.
If a customer, supplier or borrower says an agent is managing a filing, you now have a same-day check. That matters when a filing lands close to a payment request, an officer change or a registered office change.
For trade creditors, this is a control step, not a verdict on the company. Check whether the intermediary appears on the ACSP list, then compare that with the filing history and the explanation given. If the chain is clear, your file is stronger. If it is not, ask questions before changing terms or releasing goods.
