 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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a positive experience with Accotax. 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.

Who Needs Confirmation Statement Filing in Harpenden?

Most UK companies registered at Companies House need to complete Confirmation Statement Filing at least once every 12 months — including companies that are dormant, not trading or simply sitting between contracts. A confirmation statement confirms that the information Companies House holds about your company is correct. It is not the same as filing annual accounts or a Corporation Tax Return, and it does not replace any other company filing obligation.

Active trading companies of every size
Dormant companies that are not currently trading
Non-trading companies with no income in the period
Companies whose registered office, directors or shareholders have changed

What Is a Confirmation Statement and What Does It Confirm?

A confirmation statement — often called the CS01 — is a filing made to Companies House that confirms the information held about your company is accurate and up to date. It is a separate filing from your annual accounts and from a Corporation Tax Return, and it deals with company record information rather than financial results.

Registered office address and company name details
Directors, company secretary and their service addresses
Shareholders, share capital and the statement of capital
People with significant control (PSCs) and their registrable details
Standard industrial classification (SIC) code and the nature of company activity
Confirmation that the register is correct, or noting what needs to change
Any changes that must be reported separately, such as a new registered office or director

─── FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

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

What exactly is a confirmation statement?

A confirmation statement is a filing made to Companies House that confirms the information held about your company is accurate and up to date. It is sometimes referred to as the CS01. It covers details such as your registered office address, directors, shareholders and people with significant control. It is a separate requirement from annual accounts and from a Corporation Tax Return, and filing one does not satisfy those other obligations.

Who needs to file a confirmation statement?

In general, every UK company registered at Companies House is required to file a confirmation statement, whether it is actively trading, dormant or not currently doing business. Limited liability partnerships are generally required to file one as well. If you are unsure how the requirement applies to your particular company, it is worth checking your Companies House record or speaking to an accountant before assuming you are exempt.

How often does a confirmation statement need to be filed, and can I file more than one?

A company generally needs to file a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months, based on its own review period rather than its accounting period or accounts deadline. Companies House shows the next due date on your company record, and your confirmation statement will indicate when the filing is due. You can also file more than one confirmation statement during a 12-month review period if you want to confirm your details more often, for example after a share issue or a change of director. Some changes still need to be reported to Companies House separately rather than waiting for the next statement.

What information is checked or updated when filing?

The confirmation statement is a check that the register is correct. That typically means reviewing your registered office address, the directors and company secretary, your shareholders and statement of capital, your people with significant control, and your SIC code and stated company activity. If something has changed, the appropriate update usually needs to be made at Companies House, and in some cases certain changes must be notified separately rather than simply noted on the confirmation statement.

Do dormant companies need to file a confirmation statement?

Yes, in most cases. Being dormant or not trading does not normally remove the requirement to file a confirmation statement, because the statement confirms what Companies House holds on record rather than reporting trading activity or profit. Dormant companies still need their registered office, director and shareholder information to be accurate, and the confirmation statement is how that is confirmed.

How is a confirmation statement different from annual accounts?

A confirmation statement confirms the company information held at Companies House, while annual accounts report the company's financial position and results for an accounting period. They are separate filings with separate purposes and separate deadlines, and completing one does not discharge the other. If you also need help with statutory accounts, that is a distinct piece of work from Confirmation Statement Filing.

How is a confirmation statement different from a Corporation Tax Return?

A Corporation Tax Return, often referred to as the CT600, is filed with HMRC to report the company's taxable profits and work out the Corporation Tax due. A confirmation statement is filed with Companies House and simply confirms that the company information on the public register is correct. The two are submitted to different bodies, cover completely different information and run to different deadlines.

What happens if a confirmation statement is not filed?

If a confirmation statement is not filed, your company record will show it as overdue and Companies House can take action against the company. The longer it is left, the more likely it is that further steps will follow, so it is best to deal with it as soon as possible. Current Companies House guidance sets out the process and the consequences that apply in each case.

How does professional Confirmation Statement Filing in Harpenden work?

We start by reviewing the details Companies House currently holds for your company, then confirm with you what needs to stay the same and what needs updating. From there we prepare and submit your confirmation statement, and where something needs reporting separately — such as a change of registered office or a new director — we can help with that too. To get started, simply share your company details with our team in Harpenden and we will take it from there.
