Our parent company is in the USA. Can our UK subsidiary lease a van?

We can assess this. Our specialist underwriters look at the UK entity position alongside the parent standing. A company guarantee from the parent entity, translated financials, or a higher initial rental can all help.

What documents are needed?

UK Companies House registration, UK bank statements, parent company registration documents and financials (translated if needed), and any supporting information about the trading relationship between the UK entity and its overseas parent.

How long does the application process take?

Complex applications can take longer than standard ones — typically 5 to 10 working days for an underwriting decision, depending on the completeness of documentation provided.
