4. Add Companies House online presenter account
Before filing accounts in IRIS Elements, you must add your Companies House presenter account details.
If you don't have these details already, you must apply for a Companies House online filing presenter account. This is an account used specifically for filing online, not your regular Companies House account.
Once you've been accepted, you'll receive a Presenter ID.
If you've forgotten your Companies House authorisation code, contact Companies House.
- Select the Admin settings cog icon.

- Select Settings.
- Select Tax & Accounts online filing passwords.
- Select Add Companies House credentials.
- Enter the Presenter ID and Presenter authentication code.
The Presenter ID is a mix of 11 characters starting and ending with 000, not the email address used for Companies House Web Filing.
- Enter the Email address associated with the Presenter account. This field defaults to the email address for your IRIS Elements account so may need updating.
- Save changes.
