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. 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 a Company File Dormant Company Accounts in Buckingham?

A company is generally considered dormant for Companies House purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions during the accounting period. However, dormancy is not simply the absence of sales or trading activity. Certain transactions, such as the allotment of shares or the payment of filing fees, may still occur. The test depends on the company’s circumstances and the applicable accounting and Companies House rules. A dormant company may need to file dormant company accounts each year, and it normally still needs to keep its confirmation statement up to date. It is also important to distinguish between being dormant for Companies House purposes and being dormant for HMRC Corporation Tax purposes. HMRC has its own rules, and a company may need to notify HMRC about its status. We can review your situation and help you understand whether dormant company accounts are appropriate for your company in Buckingham.

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.

─── FAQs

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 Companies House purposes. They are filed to meet the company's statutory obligation to deliver accounts, using the applicable forms and format. The accounts are separate from any Corporation Tax obligations to HMRC.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

Yes. In most cases a dormant company must still deliver annual accounts to Companies House, even if it has no significant transactions. There are some exemptions, but dormancy does not automatically remove the filing requirement. We can help confirm what your company needs to file.

Does a dormant company need to submit a confirmation statement?

A confirmation statement is separate from the annual accounts. Most dormant companies must still file a confirmation statement at least once a year to keep their registered details up to date. This requirement continues while the company remains on the register.

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

Companies House and HMRC apply different tests. A company can be dormant for Companies House purposes but still active for Corporation Tax, or vice versa. Filing dormant accounts with Companies House does not automatically inform HMRC. If your company is dormant for Corporation Tax, you may need to notify HMRC separately and may not need to file further Corporation Tax Returns once HMRC confirms the position.

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

It depends. A company that is dormant for Corporation Tax and has notified HMRC may not need to file further CT600 returns. However, this is not automatic. If the company has any income or other chargeable activity, Corporation Tax obligations may continue. We can help you determine the correct approach based on your circumstances.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

Late filing of accounts can result in automatic penalties from Companies House, even for dormant companies. The amount depends on how late the accounts are filed. There is no automatic exemption from penalties simply because the company is dormant. If you have missed a filing deadline, it is important to file the outstanding accounts as soon as possible.

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

Yes. Many companies that have been incorporated but have not yet started trading are able to file dormant company accounts. We can prepare the necessary accounts and support you through the Companies House filing process. We will also explain the ongoing filing responsibilities while the company remains on the register.
