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.

When Can You File Dormant Company Accounts in Baldock?

A company is generally dormant for accounting purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions during the period. This can apply to companies that have stopped trading, have not yet started, or are retained for future use. However, dormancy is not simply about having no turnover. The company’s specific activities, such as bank interest or filing fees, can affect its status. Even if a company is dormant, it may still need to file annual accounts and submit a confirmation statement. Dormancy for Companies House is also separate from HMRC’s Corporation Tax rules. We can review your company’s circumstances and help you understand whether dormant accounts are appropriate.

A Company May Be Dormant If:

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.

Dormant Company Accounts FAQs

Still unsure where you stand? Reach out to our UK team at info@microentityaccounts.co.uk and we will review your filing history with you.

What are dormant company accounts?

Dormant company accounts are annual accounts prepared for a company that is dormant for accounting purposes. They are filed with Companies House and must meet the applicable reporting requirements. Depending on the company's circumstances, a dormant company may qualify for simplified reporting, such as micro-entity accounts. Dormant accounts do not replace other obligations like a confirmation statement.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

In most cases, yes. Dormant companies are generally still required to deliver annual accounts to Companies House unless a specific exemption applies. Being dormant does not automatically remove the filing obligation. It is important to check the company's specific circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules.

Can a dormant company file micro-entity accounts?

Some dormant companies may qualify as micro-entities and be able to use the micro-entity reporting framework. However, dormancy and micro-entity status are separate tests. Eligibility depends on the company's size, structure and other requirements. We can help you determine whether micro-entity accounts are available for your dormant company.

What is the difference between dormant for Companies House and dormant for HMRC?

Being dormant for Companies House relates to filing obligations under the Companies Act. HMRC treats dormancy separately for Corporation Tax. A company that is dormant for Companies House may still need to notify HMRC and, depending on its Corporation Tax position, may need to file Corporation Tax Returns until HMRC confirms no further returns are required. The definitions and processes are not the same.

Does a dormant company still need a confirmation statement?

Yes, in many cases. A confirmation statement is a separate filing with Companies House that keeps your registered information up to date. Filing dormant company accounts does not replace the confirmation statement. The requirement depends on the company's circumstances, but it is an annual obligation for most active and dormant companies.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

If required dormant accounts are not delivered by the statutory deadline, the company can face late-filing penalties. Dormancy does not automatically protect a company from these penalties. The amount and whether a penalty can be appealed depend on the circumstances and Companies House rules. Filing the outstanding accounts is still essential.

Can you help prepare dormant accounts for a company that has never traded?

Yes. We regularly assist companies that have not yet started trading, as well as those that have stopped trading or are held for future use. If the company is eligible, we can prepare the required accounts and file them with Companies House. We can also advise on HMRC notification where the company is dormant for Corporation Tax purposes.
