As of 15 June 2022, there are 7,633 companies on the Register who have provided a current registered office address that contains a PO Box.

The Registrar of Companies has the power to set a company's registered office address to a default Companies House address where a statutory process to dispute the address is complete. This default address includes PO Box 4385, and as of 5 June 2022 there are 9,005 companies registered to this address.
