About MIND TOOLS LTD

Company type and jurisdiction

MIND TOOLS LTD is a private company limited by shares. Its owners (shareholders) are only liable for its debts up to the value of their shares, it must have at least one director, and its shares cannot be offered to the public. Its company number SC202102 shows it was registered in Scotland, so its records are kept by Companies House in Edinburgh. It has been on the register for 26 years and 11 months.

What MIND TOOLS LTD does

On the public register, MIND TOOLS LTD lists its activity using the UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2007): other publishing activities (58190). This places it in the information and communication section of the economy. SIC codes describe what a company says it does; they are not a licence and are not checked by Companies House. See other companies with the same SIC code.

Where MIND TOOLS LTD is registered

Its registered office is in Edinburgh (postcode district EH2). The registered office is the official address for letters from Companies House, HMRC and the courts. It must be in the same UK jurisdiction where the company was registered, but it does not have to be where the business trades: many companies use their accountant's or a formation agent's address.

Accounts and filing deadlines

MIND TOOLS LTD must file its next annual accounts by 31 December 2026. The last accounts on the register were group accounts covering a parent company and its subsidiaries. Its next confirmation statement, which confirms its officers, shareholders and registered office are up to date, is due by 15 December 2026. A private company that files its accounts late gets an automatic penalty of £150 if they are up to one month late, rising to £375, £750 and £1,500 after six months, and the penalty is doubled if accounts are late two years in a row. A company that does not file a confirmation statement can be struck off the register.

Charges and secured debt

MIND TOOLS LTD has 11 charges registered against it, of which 4 are still outstanding. A charge is security given to a lender, such as a mortgage over property or a debenture over all the company's assets; if the company does not repay, the lender can take those assets first. The full charge documents can be read for free on Companies House.
