CANON (UK) LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 01264300, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 21 June 1976 and lists its registered address as UXBRIDGE, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for CANON (UK) LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 1 October 2026.

Shareholders

2

Two shareholders are currently on record for CANON (UK) LIMITED, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

The largest of these is CANON HOLDINGS (UK) LTD, holding 79.5% — a majority holding — followed by CANON EUROPA NV at 20.5%.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers

4

Three of the 4 officer records shown for CANON (UK) LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Guido Jacobs (appointed 2025-04-01) and Matthew Paget (appointed 2025-10-13) both serve as Director; Christophe Narahara (appointed 2026-01-28) serves as Company Secretary. The remaining 1 record shown (Zoe Eshelby) is a former appointment that has since been resigned.

The register reports 43 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 4 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at CANON (UK) LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

CANON (UK) LIMITED sits 4 levels below its ultimate parent, CANON INC., registered in Japan. 2 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. The full chain up to CANON INC. is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by CANON (UK) LIMITED's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 2 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Ireland jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
