 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.

What Is a Confirmation Statement and What Does It Confirm?

A confirmation statement is a statutory filing made at Companies House. Its purpose is simple: to confirm that the information Companies House holds about your company is accurate and up to date as at the confirmation date. It is not a set of accounts and it is not a tax return — it is a check of your company record.

The registered office address and, where applicable, the registered email address
Details of directors and the company secretary
Shareholders, share capital and the statement of capital
People with significant control (PSC) information
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes and the nature of the business
Confirmation of whether the company is trading or dormant
Where something has changed, some updates must be reported to Companies House separately rather than waiting for the confirmation statement

─── 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 short statutory filing made at Companies House. It confirms that the information Companies House holds about your company — such as the registered office address, directors, shareholders, statement of capital and people with significant control — is accurate and up to date as at the confirmation date. It is not a financial document, and it does not replace annual accounts or a Company Tax Return. If the record is already correct, you simply confirm it; if something has changed, the confirmation statement gives you the chance to make sure the record is brought up to date, although some changes must be notified to Companies House separately.

Who needs Confirmation Statement Filing in Sunderland?

Most UK companies registered at Companies House need to file a confirmation statement, and that applies to companies based in Sunderland just as it does anywhere else in the UK. It covers actively trading companies, dormant companies, companies that have not yet started trading, and companies limited by guarantee. It is normally the directors who are responsible for making sure the filing is completed on time, even if an accountant or a service such as Micro Entity Accounts prepares and submits it on the company's behalf.

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, even if nothing at all has changed during that period. The 12 months runs from the date of the last confirmation statement, not from your company's year end or accounting period, which is why the two deadlines are easy to mix up. Companies can also file more than one confirmation statement within a review period when information changes and they want the public record updated sooner rather than later.

What information is checked when a confirmation statement is filed?

The confirmation statement is a check of the company information Companies House holds. That typically includes the registered office address, the registered email address where applicable, directors and company secretary details, shareholders and the statement of capital, people with significant control, and the SIC codes describing what the company does. It also confirms whether the company is trading or dormant. If any of those details have changed, they usually need to be reported to Companies House on the relevant separate form rather than being amended only through the confirmation statement.

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

Yes, in most cases. Being dormant or not currently trading does not normally remove the requirement to file a confirmation statement, because the filing is about the accuracy of the company record rather than about profit, turnover or tax. A dormant company still has a registered office, directors and often shareholders, and Companies House still needs those details confirmed. Dormant companies may qualify for simplified annual accounts, but that is a separate matter from Confirmation Statement Filing.

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

No — they are three separate filings with different purposes and different deadlines. A confirmation statement confirms that the company information held at Companies House is accurate and up to date. Annual accounts report the company's financial position and performance for its accounting period and are filed at Companies House for the financial year. A Corporation Tax Return (CT600) is a submission to HMRC that calculates the company's tax liability. Filing one of these does not satisfy the others, so each needs to be dealt with in its own right.

What happens if a confirmation statement is not filed?

If a confirmation statement is not filed, the company record becomes out of date and Companies House can take action against the company. Failure to file is treated seriously under company law, and repeated or prolonged failure can have consequences for the company and its directors, including action that may ultimately affect the company's existence on the register. Because it is a separate filing from annual accounts, filing your accounts does not resolve an overdue confirmation statement. If you think a confirmation statement may have been missed, it is worth checking the position and bringing the record up to date as soon as you can.

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

Professional Confirmation Statement Filing is straightforward. You share your company details with us or confirm that nothing has changed, we check the information against what Companies House currently holds, highlight anything that looks out of date or needs reporting separately, and then prepare and submit the confirmation statement on your behalf. You receive confirmation once the filing has been made, so you know exactly where things stand. To get started, simply get in touch with your company name and registration number, and the date of your last confirmation statement if you have it to hand — we will take it from there.
