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 Does a Company Qualify for Dormant Company Accounts in Crewkerne?

A company is generally considered dormant for Companies House purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions during the period. That means no income, no expenditure, and no other transactions that require entry in the company’s accounting records. However, dormancy is not simply about whether the company is trading. A company that has stopped trading, has not yet started trading, or is retained for future use may still qualify, depending on the circumstances and the applicable rules. Being dormant does not automatically remove the need to file annual accounts or to submit a confirmation statement where one is due. It is also important to distinguish between being dormant for Companies House and being dormant for Corporation Tax purposes, as HMRC applies its own tests. We can review your company’s position and explain what is required.

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 the annual accounts that a company prepares and files with Companies House when it has been dormant during the accounting period. They confirm that the company has had no significant accounting transactions and meet the reporting requirements for a dormant company. Even though the company is dormant, these accounts must still be prepared and filed by the statutory deadline unless a specific exemption applies.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts with Companies House?

Yes, in most cases. Being dormant does not automatically exempt a company from its filing obligations. Unless a specific exemption applies, a dormant company must still prepare and file its annual accounts with Companies House. The accounts may be simpler than those of an active company, but the obligation to file generally remains. Our team can help ensure your dormant company accounts are filed correctly and on time.

Can a dormant company use micro-entity accounts?

Some dormant companies may be eligible to use the micro-entity reporting framework, which is designed for the smallest companies. However, not every dormant company qualifies as a micro-entity, and eligibility depends on factors such as the company's size, turnover and balance sheet position. Dormancy and micro-entity status are separate matters. We can confirm whether your company qualifies for micro-entity accounts and prepare the necessary documents accordingly.

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

Being dormant for Companies House purposes means the company has no significant accounting transactions and is not required to file a full set of accounts. Being dormant for Corporation Tax purposes is a different test applied by HMRC. A company might be dormant for Companies House but still need to deal with HMRC, for example by notifying them or submitting Corporation Tax Returns until HMRC confirms they are no longer required. Filing dormant company accounts with Companies House does not automatically tell HMRC about your Corporation Tax position.

Does a dormant company still need to submit a confirmation statement?

Yes. A confirmation statement is a separate filing that confirms the company's registered information is up to date. It is required at least once every 12 months for most active companies, and a dormant company is not automatically exempt. Filing dormant company accounts does not replace the requirement to submit a confirmation statement. We can assist with both obligations so that your Companies House record remains compliant.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

Dormant companies are still subject to Companies House late-filing penalties if their required accounts are not submitted by the applicable deadline. The penalty amount depends on how late the accounts are filed and may vary depending on the circumstances. Dormant status does not automatically protect a company from these consequences, and paying a penalty does not remove the need to file the overdue accounts. If you have missed a deadline, we can help you prepare and file the outstanding accounts as quickly as possible.

What information do you need to prepare dormant company accounts?

To prepare dormant company accounts, we generally need the company's details, including the registered number, registered office address, directors' names, and the date the company was incorporated. We also need to confirm that the company has had no significant accounting transactions during the period. For a dormant company, the annual accounts are usually straightforward, but it is still important that they are completed accurately and filed with the correct information.
