KIA UK LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 04415807, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 12 April 2002 and lists its registered address as Walton-On-Thames, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for KIA 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 19 October 2026.

Shareholders

1

One shareholder is currently on record for KIA UK LIMITED, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

The largest of these is KIA EUROPE GMBH, holding 100% — a majority holding.

Because the 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

5

Three of the 5 officer records shown for KIA UK LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Paul Philpott (appointed 2012-07-02), TAE WAN PARK (appointed 2024-02-01) and Jung Shin (appointed 2024-02-01) all serve as Director. The remaining 2 records shown (Joung Lee and Young Kim) are former appointments that have since been resigned.

The register reports 27 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at KIA 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

KIA UK LIMITED sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, KIA CORPORATION, registered in South Korea. 3 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 3 jurisdictions. Immediately above KIA UK LIMITED is Kia Europe GmbH, holding 100% as filed in KIA UK LIMITED's own shareholder record with Companies House. KIA CORPORATION sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. 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 3 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Ecuador, 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.
