Part 1: Registration of Overseas Entities Schedule 1: Applications: Required information Part 4: Managing officers
Paragraph 6 sets out the information that must be provided by an individual who is a managing officer. The requirements are different from those imposed on beneficial owners. A managing officer must provide their name, date of birth and nationality; any former name (unless sub-paragraph (2) applies); usual residential address; a service address (which may be stated as the entity’s registered or principal office); business occupation (if any); and a description of the officer’s roles and responsibilities in relation to the entity.
	The circumstances in which a former name does not have to be supplied are (i) in the case of a peer or an individual normally known by a British title, where the name is one by which the person was known prior to the adoption of or succession to the title; and (ii) in the case of any person whose former name was dropped or disused before the person turned 16 years old, or has been changed or disused for 20 years or more.
	"Former name" means a name by which the individual was formerly known for business purposes. If a person was formerly known by more than one qualifying name, each of them must be stated.
	When a managing officer is not an individual, slightly different information is required: name; registered or principal office; a service address; the legal form of the entity and the law by which it is governed; any public register in which it is entered and, if applicable, its registration number in that register; and a description of the officer’s roles and responsibilities in relation to the entity. It is also a requirement to provide the name and contact details of an individual who may be contacted about the managing officer.
	In Part 1, "managing officer", in relation to an overseas entity, includes a director, manager or secretary.
