 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.

─── OVERDUE ACCOUNTS EXPLAINED

What Makes Company Accounts Overdue, and Why It Is Worth Acting On

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable statutory filing deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. That deadline is not the same date for every company — it depends on the company’s accounting reference period and its own circumstances. Once the date has passed, the accounts stay outstanding until they are properly prepared and filed, and the obligation does not disappear simply because the company has stopped trading, has no income or has been quiet for a while. Even dormant companies can have annual accounts filing obligations to meet. The longer overdue accounts are left, the more involved the position can become: Companies House can apply late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the deadline, and persistent non-compliance may increase the risk of further action against the company. In practice, the situation is often less complicated than directors fear once the outstanding periods have been identified. We help directors work out which accounting periods are overdue, confirm the reporting framework that applies to each one, prepare the statutory accounts and support delivery to Companies House — while flagging any separate matters, such as confirmation statements or Corporation Tax obligations, that may also need attention.

─── Why Choose Us

How Much Are Companies House Late Filing Penalties?

Penalties escalate the longer your accounts stay unfiled, and they double if your company also filed late in the previous financial year. Acting now is the single most effective way to cap what you owe.

How late the accounts are	Private company	Public company
Up to 1 month late	£150	£300
1 to 3 months late	£375	£750
3 to 6 months late	£750	£1,500
More than 6 months late	£1,500	£3,000

HMRC applies separate penalties for late Corporation Tax Returns, starting at £100 per return plus interest on unpaid tax. Companies House late-filing penalties can change, so check the current GOV.UK guidance for the latest penalty rules.

─── FAQs

Overdue Company Accounts FAQs

Still unsure where you stand? Reach out to our UK team at info@microentityaccounts.co.uk and we will review your filing history with you.

What exactly are overdue company accounts?

Overdue company accounts are the statutory accounts that a company was required to deliver to Companies House by a particular filing deadline, where that deadline has passed and the accounts have not yet been filed. The filing date is normally based on the company's accounting reference period and its own circumstances, so it differs from company to company. What makes accounts overdue is whether the required accounts have actually been delivered — not whether the company has been trading, has made a profit or has been active.

Do we still have to file company accounts once the filing deadline has passed?

Yes. Passing the deadline does not remove the requirement to prepare and deliver the accounts. They remain outstanding until they are filed, and Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The right approach for a particular overdue period depends on the company's circumstances, but the starting point is usually to prepare the accounts that are due, have them reviewed and approved, and then deliver them to Companies House.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have annual accounts filing obligations, and if the accounts required for a period were not delivered by the applicable deadline, that period is overdue. Dormant status does not by itself remove the need to file, so it is worth checking the company's Companies House records rather than assuming no action is needed.

What happens if overdue accounts are delivered to Companies House after the deadline?

Where statutory accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, a late-filing penalty may apply. Penalties are set under Companies House rules and depend on factors such as how long the accounts have been outstanding and the type of company, so the amount is not the same in every case. Filing the outstanding accounts and dealing with any penalty are treated as separate matters, and the longer accounts remain overdue, the more serious the consequences may become.

If a Companies House late-filing penalty is paid, does that remove the requirement to file?

No. The penalty and the filing obligation are separate. Paying a late-filing penalty does not satisfy the requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts, and it does not automatically cancel or reduce a penalty. If you believe a penalty has been issued incorrectly, an appeal may be possible depending on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and we can review the position with you.

We have more than one accounting period outstanding — how is that handled?

Where a company has missed more than one filing deadline, each accounting period generally needs to be dealt with separately. That may mean preparing more than one set of statutory accounts and filing each set with Companies House, usually working through the periods in sequence so the figures and the underlying records stay consistent. Each period is also assessed on its own for penalty purposes. The number of sets of accounts involved and the work required depend on the company's circumstances and how far back the outstanding periods go.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns separate from the accounts filed at Companies House?

Yes. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as the CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable. Delivering overdue accounts to Companies House does not, by itself, settle any outstanding Corporation Tax obligations. A confirmation statement is also a separate filing sent to Companies House. Where more than one type of filing is outstanding, each is dealt with under its own rules and timescales.

Can overdue accounts be prepared as micro-entity accounts, and how can Micro Entity Accounts help?

Some companies with overdue accounts may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, which uses the FRS 105 standard, but not every company does. Eligibility depends on the company's size, legal structure, accounting period and the reporting framework that applies to it, and the position should be checked for each outstanding period. Micro Entity Accounts can review your filing position, confirm the appropriate framework, prepare the overdue accounts and support delivery to Companies House. We will also explain what information is needed — typically bookkeeping records, bank statements, invoices, expense records, previous accounts and current company details — which varies with the period being prepared.
