 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.

 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.

What Is a Confirmation Statement and What Does It Do?

A confirmation statement — commonly known by its form name, the CS01 — is a filing made at Companies House to confirm that the information the register holds about your company is accurate and up to date. It is a confirmation of existing details, not a set of accounts and not a tax return. Its purpose is to keep the public record reliable for banks, customers, suppliers and anyone else who looks your company up.

Confirmation of your company name, registered office address and registered email address
Directors, secretaries and their details as currently held on the register
Shareholders, share capital and the statement of capital
People with significant control (PSC) and their registrable details
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code and the nature of the company's business
Confirmation of whether the company is trading, dormant or non-trading where relevant
A check that no changes have been missed, with anything that has changed reported separately to Companies House where the rules require it

─── FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

Common questions about our confirmation statement filing service, deadlines and what Companies House requires.

What is a confirmation statement?

A confirmation statement is a filing made at Companies House that confirms the information held on the public register about your company is accurate and up to date. It is often referred to by its form name, the CS01. It confirms existing information rather than reporting financial results, and it is a separate filing from your annual accounts and from anything you send to HMRC.

Who needs Confirmation Statement Filing in Chelmsford?

Most UK limited companies and limited liability partnerships registered at Companies House need to file a confirmation statement, whether they are based in Chelmsford or elsewhere in the UK. The requirement normally applies whether the company is actively trading, dormant or not trading at all. If you are unsure how the rules apply to your particular company, it is worth checking your company's filing status at Companies House or asking an accountant, as the position can depend on your circumstances.

How often does a confirmation statement need to be filed?

UK companies generally need to file a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months, even if the company is dormant or not trading. The 12-month period runs from the date of your last confirmation statement, or from incorporation for the first one. Importantly, this review period is not the same as your accounting period or your annual accounts deadline, and a statement is normally required for each review period regardless of whether anything has changed.

Can I file more than one confirmation statement during a review period?

Yes. A company can file more than one confirmation statement within a review period if information changes and you want the register updated sooner rather than later. That said, many changes — such as appointing or resigning a director, changing the registered office, or updating share information — need to be reported separately to Companies House rather than simply noted on the confirmation statement, so it is worth checking what each change requires before you file.

Do dormant or non-trading companies need to file a confirmation statement?

Yes, in most cases. A dormant company is still registered at Companies House, so the confirmation statement requirement normally still applies, even though there may be very little to confirm. Being dormant does not remove the need to file a confirmation statement, and it does not take the place of annual accounts or any tax filings that apply to the company.

Is a confirmation statement the same as annual accounts or a Corporation Tax Return?

No — they are three separate things. A confirmation statement confirms that the information Companies House holds about your company is correct. Annual (statutory) accounts report your company's financial position for an accounting period. A Corporation Tax Return, or CT600, is the return submitted to HMRC to report profits and work out Corporation Tax. Each has its own purpose and its own deadline, so filing one does not satisfy the others.

What information do I need to check before filing?

As part of Confirmation Statement Filing you check the details Companies House currently holds, including the registered office address, directors and secretaries, shareholders and share capital, people with significant control, and your SIC code. You then confirm whether those details are still correct. If something has changed, we can help identify whether it needs to be reported on the confirmation statement itself or through a separate Companies House filing.

What happens if a confirmation statement is not filed?

The confirmation statement is a legal filing requirement, so missing it is not something to leave unaddressed. Companies House may take action, and continued failure to file can ultimately lead to the company being removed from the register. Keeping the filing up to date also keeps your public record accurate, which matters when banks, customers, suppliers or investors check your company. If you think a statement has been missed, it is best to sort it out as quickly as possible.
