─── SPECIALIST DORMANT COMPANY ACCOUNTANTS IN THE UK

Dormant Company Accounts Filing in Llanelli for Dormant Limited Companies

If your company has stopped trading but is still registered at Companies House, Dormant Company Accounts Filing in Llanelli can help you prepare and submit the annual accounts that are appropriate to your circumstances. Our role is to look at what your company has actually done during the accounting period, confirm whether it meets the conditions for dormancy for Companies House purposes, and then prepare and file the correct accounts through the proper route — rather than assuming that every inactive company can use the same form. Just as importantly, we help directors stay on top of the wider annual filing picture. Dormant status does not automatically remove the requirement to file annual accounts, and it does not remove the requirement to file a confirmation statement, so an inactive company can still have live obligations to meet each year. If you are a director in Llanelli who is unsure whether anything still needs to be filed, we can review your position, explain what applies to your company and keep your Companies House filing organised so you are not caught out by a missed submission.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Accotx on a HMRC reclaim and overall, they did ultimately deliver on their promise, which I appreciate. The process did take longer than any of us expected, partly due to external delays with the tax authorities, and partly because there were some hiccups in communication and follow-up. However, despite those challenges, they stayed professional and stuck to the original agreed terms. If you’re considering using them, be prepared to stay in regular contact to keep things moving along. They are absolutely capable, have the expertise and willing to work with you, and overall  improving their services over time. I would certainly return for any future needs.

 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.

When You Can Prepare and File Dormant Company Accounts

Dormant company accounts are generally relevant where a company is dormant for Companies House purposes and has had no significant accounting transactions during the financial period being reported. In broad terms, a company is usually treated as dormant for Companies House purposes when it has no notable accounting transactions at all — but what counts as significant, and whether a particular transaction affects your dormancy, depends on the applicable rules and on your company’s own circumstances. That is why it is worth establishing your position before you file rather than assuming that because the company has not traded, it automatically qualifies. It is equally important to understand that dormancy for Companies House and dormancy for Corporation Tax are two separate concepts. A company can be dormant for one purpose and not for the other, and filing dormant accounts with Companies House does not automatically notify HMRC or settle any Corporation Tax position. A company can also remain registered and dormant while still carrying annual filing responsibilities, including the annual accounts and a confirmation statement, so dormant status should never be treated as an exemption from all company filing requirements. Checking the position carefully at the start — and again if anything changes during the year — is the most reliable way to file the right thing at the right time.

A company may be able to file dormant accounts where it has had no significant accounting transactions during the relevant financial year, subject to the applicable Companies House rules.

It has been incorporated but has not started trading.

Trading has stopped and the company has no relevant ongoing activity.

Its only transactions are those that Companies House disregards when determining dormancy.

It is being retained for a future business purpose, subject to its actual activities and transactions.

What are dormant company accounts?

Dormant company accounts are the annual accounts filed at Companies House by a company that is dormant for Companies House purposes. They reflect a company that has had no significant accounting transactions during the period, rather than a company that has been trading and needs full statutory accounts with a profit and loss account. They are not a way of hiding activity, and they are not a substitute for other filings — they simply report an inactive position in the format that applies to your company.

What makes a company dormant for Companies House purposes?

Broadly, a company is dormant for Companies House purposes when it has no significant accounting transactions during the accounting period. Certain transactions are generally disregarded, but whether a specific item affects dormancy depends on the rules and on your circumstances. A company that has not been trading is not automatically dormant for this purpose, so the test is about what actually happened in the period rather than the intention behind it.

Does a dormant company still need to file annual accounts?

In most cases, yes. A company that is dormant for Companies House purposes will usually still have an annual accounts filing obligation every year, unless it has been formally dissolved or a specific rule applies to its situation. Being dormant does not mean the company has no filing responsibilities, and it does not mean it can simply skip the accounts. The format and route you use depend on your company's circumstances and on current Companies House rules — not every dormant company can use the same form, and the short dormant accounts form sometimes referred to as AA02 is not a universal option for every dormant company.

Does a dormant company need to file a confirmation statement?

A confirmation statement is a separate Companies House filing from the annual accounts, and a dormant company will generally still need to file one each year while it remains registered. The confirmation statement confirms that the information Companies House holds about the company — such as the registered office, directors, shareholders and share capital — is correct as at the confirmation date. It is a different exercise from dormant company accounts and needs to be dealt with separately, even if nothing has changed since the previous year.

Are dormant company accounts different from normal company accounts?

Yes. A trading company normally prepares full statutory accounts including a profit and loss account and a balance sheet, whereas a dormant company's accounts reflect a period with no significant accounting transactions and are usually far shorter. The requirements that apply to your company still depend on its own circumstances, so it is worth confirming the correct format before filing rather than assuming a dormant company and an active trading company follow the same approach.

Is being dormant for Companies House the same as being dormant for Corporation Tax?

No. These are two separate concepts, assessed by two different bodies for two different purposes. A company can be dormant for Companies House purposes but not for Corporation Tax, or the other way around. Filing dormant accounts with Companies House does not automatically tell HMRC that your company is dormant for tax purposes, and it does not automatically end any Corporation Tax obligations. If you want to understand your tax position as well, that is a separate conversation from preparing and filing your Companies House accounts.

Does a dormant company need to file a Corporation Tax Return?

It depends on your company's circumstances and on whether HMRC treats it as dormant for Corporation Tax purposes. A Corporation Tax Return is an HMRC obligation and sits entirely outside the Companies House accounts filing process, so filing dormant company accounts does not deal with it. If you are unsure whether a return is due, it is worth checking your position with HMRC or with an accountant who can look at the specific facts.

Can a dormant company have bank charges or other small transactions?

Some transactions are generally disregarded when assessing dormancy, but others — including many bank charges and interest — go beyond what is usually ignored and may mean the company is not dormant for that period. If your company has incurred bank charges or any other payments or receipts, it is worth reviewing them before deciding which accounts to prepare, because the answer can change the filing route you need to use.
