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.

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 Accounts in Colden Common?

A company may be able to file dormant accounts if it has no significant accounting transactions during the period covered by the accounts. Dormancy for Companies House purposes is not simply about having no sales or not currently trading. It depends on the company’s activities, whether it has received income or incurred expenditure, and the specific rules that apply. A company that has not yet started trading, has stopped trading, or is retained for future use may be dormant if it meets the relevant criteria. Importantly, filing dormant accounts does not automatically remove the need to file a confirmation statement with Companies House, and it is separate from Corporation Tax obligations. A company can be dormant for Companies House purposes yet still have obligations to HMRC. Being dormant for Corporation Tax purposes is a different matter and depends on whether HMRC has been appropriately notified. If you are unsure whether your Colden Common company qualifies as dormant, we can review your circumstances and explain the correct position.

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

What are dormant company accounts?

Dormant company accounts are the annual accounts that a company must prepare and file with Companies House when it has been dormant during the accounting period. They confirm that no significant accounting transactions have taken place and are filed in accordance with the Companies Act requirements. A company can be dormant for Companies House purposes even if it still has filing obligations such as an annual confirmation statement.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

Yes, in most cases. A dormant company is generally still required to file its annual accounts with Companies House unless a specific exemption applies. Dormancy does not remove the filing obligation. The accounts you file will be dormant accounts, but they must still be prepared correctly and submitted on time to help avoid late-filing penalties.

Can a dormant company file micro-entity accounts?

Some dormant companies may qualify as micro-entities under the applicable reporting framework. That depends on the company's size, legal structure and accounting period. Dormancy and micro-entity status are separate. If a dormant company also satisfies the micro-entity criteria, it may be able to use the simplified micro-entity reporting format, subject to the relevant requirements. We can help determine whether that applies to your company.

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

Being dormant for Companies House purposes relates to your obligations to file annual accounts and confirmation statements with the registrar. Being dormant for Corporation Tax purposes is a separate matter and depends on whether HMRC considers your company to have no Corporation Tax liability and whether it has been notified accordingly. A company can be dormant for Companies House but still need to tell HMRC about its Corporation Tax position. Filing dormant accounts with Companies House does not automatically inform HMRC or remove Corporation Tax obligations.

Does a dormant company still need a confirmation statement?

Yes, in most cases. A confirmation statement is separate from annual accounts. A dormant company must keep its Companies House information up to date and submit a confirmation statement when it is due. Filing dormant accounts does not replace the confirmation statement, and both obligations must be managed independently.

How were the dormant company accounts prepared for a company that has never traded?

A company that has never traded may still need to prepare dormant accounts if it has been incorporated and is not carrying on business. The accounts should reflect that there have been no significant accounting transactions. As long as the company meets the relevant dormancy rules, we can prepare the appropriate dormant accounts and file them with Companies House where required.

What information is needed to prepare dormant company accounts?

We typically need the company name, company number, registered office address, details of directors and shareholders, and confirmation of the accounting period. You should also confirm that the company has had no significant accounting transactions during the period. In many cases, the information held by Companies House is enough to draft the accounts, but your review and authorisation are required before submission.

Can you help bring overdue dormant company accounts up to date in Colden Common?

Yes. If your dormant company has missed a filing deadline for its annual accounts, we can assist in preparing and filing the outstanding accounts as soon as possible. However, late filing can still result in penalties from Companies House, and our ability to reduce or appeal those penalties depends on the circumstances and applicable rules. Filing the missing accounts is the essential first step, and we can support you through that process.
