It’s trivial to start a limited company in the UK too.
Need to be VAT registered, too. I have no idea how much extra effort that involves.
I would guess it is trivial enough for whoever that might wish to commit identity fraud on your behalf can get away with it pretty easily.
Not a requirement for a company.
But it is required for the thing above.
There are two lines mentioning being a director of a company:
So if it is a limited company you need to be a board member but if it is a non limited company you can be a director, manager or personnel manager.
The second one is a bit harder to achieve for fraudulent purposes.
