What are micro entity accounts?

Micro entity accounts are a simplified set of statutory accounts prepared under FRS 105. They include a short balance sheet and limited notes, with no directors’ report or profit and loss account filed publicly, which keeps your business information private and your filing costs low.

Does my company qualify as a micro entity?

Yes, your company may qualify as a micro entity if it meets at least two of the following criteria in a financial year:

Annual turnover of £1 million or less
Balance sheet total of £500,000 or less
10 or fewer employees

How long does it take to prepare and file my accounts?

The time required depends on the accuracy and completeness of your financial records. If all the necessary information is available, most company accounts can be prepared and filed within a few working days. Providing your records early also helps ensure deadlines are met and reduces the risk of late filing penalties from Companies House and HMRC.

Can you file accounts that are already late?

Yes. Even if your company accounts are overdue, they can still be prepared and filed. Filing as soon as possible helps minimise further penalties and ensures your company returns to compliance. If you’ve missed a deadline, it’s best to act quickly to avoid additional fines and any potential enforcement action from Companies House.

Do I still need to file a corporation tax return?

Yes. Most limited companies must file a Corporation Tax Return with HMRC, even if they have made little or no profit during the accounting period. In many cases, you’ll also need to submit company accounts. Filing on time helps you remain compliant and avoid late filing penalties and interest charges.

What records do you need from me?

To prepare your company accounts, you’ll typically need to provide bank statements, sales and purchase records, expense receipts, payroll information (if applicable), and details of any assets, loans, or dividends. The exact documents required depend on your business, and your accountant will let you know if any additional information is needed.

Can LLPs file micro entity accounts?

Yes, an LLP can file micro-entity accounts if it meets the same size thresholds as a limited company. Not all LLPs qualify, so we assess this for you before preparing accounts.

What's the difference between micro-entity accounts and full accounts?

The main difference is the level of detail and complexity. Micro-entity accounts are a simplified version of full accounts, designed for very small businesses. They require less information to be disclosed and are easier to prepare. For example, a micro-entity’s accounts typically do not need to include a directors’ report or a detailed profit and loss account for public filing. Full accounts, on the other hand, require a more comprehensive set of financial statements and disclosures.
