 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.

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 Why Does Companies House Need One?

A confirmation statement, often referred to as a CS01, is the filing used to confirm that the information Companies House holds about your company is accurate and up to date. It is not a set of statutory accounts and it is not a Corporation Tax Return — it is a separate filing that sits alongside those obligations and serves its own purpose.

Shareholders, share capital and any changes to shareholdings

─── FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

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

What is Confirmation Statement Filing?

Confirmation Statement Filing is the process of submitting a confirmation statement to Companies House to confirm that the information held about your company is accurate and up to date. It is an annual style check of your company record rather than a financial filing. That means it does not report profit, turnover or tax — it simply confirms the registered details are correct and, where they are not, prompts the necessary corrections or separate notifications. For companies in Sawbridgeworth and across the UK, the filing is normally completed online.

Who needs to file a confirmation statement?

Generally, any company registered at Companies House needs to file a confirmation statement, regardless of whether it is trading, dormant or has stopped trading altogether. The requirement is linked to the company being registered, not to the level of activity or income. If you are a director of a limited company, it is worth checking your company's review period and making sure a confirmation statement has been filed for it.

How often does a confirmation statement need to be filed?

A UK company generally needs to file a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months, calculated from its review period rather than its accounting period. The review period is set by Companies House and usually runs from incorporation or from the date of the last statement. You can file more than one confirmation statement during a review period if information changes and you want the public record updated sooner, and filing an additional statement does not reset the review period.

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

In most cases, yes. Being dormant or not trading does not normally remove the requirement to file a confirmation statement, because the statement is about the accuracy of your company information rather than your trading activity. Dormant companies may have simpler information to confirm, but the filing obligation itself usually remains. If you are unsure how dormancy affects your company's specific filing position, it is worth taking advice on your circumstances.

What is the difference between a confirmation statement and annual accounts?

A confirmation statement confirms that the information Companies House holds is correct, while annual accounts report the financial position and performance of the company for an accounting period. They are separate filings with separate deadlines, and preparing one does not satisfy the other. Statutory accounts are usually prepared to an accounting reference date, whereas a confirmation statement follows the company's review period.

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

A Corporation Tax Return (CT600) is filed with HMRC to report the company's taxable profits and calculate the Corporation Tax due. A confirmation statement is filed with Companies House and contains no tax or profit information at all. Completing one does not fulfil the other, and a company may need to deal with both in the same year. They are handled by different authorities for different purposes.

What happens if a confirmation statement is not filed?

If a confirmation statement is not filed, the company's record at Companies House remains out of date, and Companies House can take action against the company. The exact consequences depend on the company's circumstances and how long the filing has been outstanding. The practical answer is that it is far easier to keep on top of the filing than to resolve it later, which is why many directors instruct a professional service to manage it for them.

How does professional Confirmation Statement Filing work and how do I get started?

With a professional service, you provide the details of your company and any changes since the last statement, and the filing is prepared, checked and submitted to Companies House on your behalf. Where information such as a registered office address, director details or shareholdings needs updating, those changes often need to be reported separately rather than simply noted on the confirmation statement. To get started, share your company name and the information you have, and a team can confirm what is required for your confirmation statement submission.
