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 Crowborough Company File Dormant Company Accounts?

A company is generally considered dormant for accounting purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions during the relevant period. This can include a company that has stopped trading, a newly formed company that has not yet started trading, or a holding company that only holds assets and has no income or expenditure. However, dormancy is not simply a matter of having no sales or no current activity. The treatment for Companies House and HMRC can differ, and the company must satisfy the applicable conditions. Even when a company is dormant for Companies House purposes, it may still be required to file annual accounts and submit a confirmation statement unless a specific exemption applies. It is also possible to be dormant for Companies House but active for Corporation Tax, or vice versa. Our team can review your circumstances and help you understand whether dormant company accounts are appropriate, and what filing obligations may still arise.

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.

What are dormant company accounts?

Dormant company accounts are annual accounts prepared for a company that has not had any significant accounting transactions during the accounting period, and which meets the conditions for dormancy under the Companies Act. These accounts typically contain a balance sheet and certain disclosures, rather than a full set of profit and loss accounts, and must be filed with Companies House where required. The exact format and filing requirements depend on the company’s circumstances and whether any exemption applies.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

Generally, yes. A dormant company is usually still required to file annual accounts with Companies House unless a specific exemption applies. Dormant status does not remove the need to file accounts; it may simply change the content of those accounts. Micro-entity and dormant company filing options can simplify the process, but the filing obligation still exists.

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, which means significantly shorter accounts can be filed. However, not every dormant company automatically qualifies. Eligibility depends on factors such as turnover, balance sheet total and number of employees. We can help you determine which reporting framework applies.

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

Being dormant for Companies House is about the company having no significant accounting transactions, while being dormant for HMRC relates to Corporation Tax. They are separate statuses under different rules. For example, a company may be dormant for Companies House but still need to file a Corporation Tax Return if it has tax obligations. Conversely, a company could be treated as dormant by HMRC but still be required to file accounts with Companies House. The two should not be treated as the same.

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

Dormancy for Companies House does not automatically mean a company is dormant for Corporation Tax. If your company is not trading but was still active for Corporation Tax purposes, it may need to continue submitting Corporation Tax Returns. If it meets HMRCu2019s conditions for being dormant, you may need to notify HMRC and, once accepted, you may not need to file further returns unless circumstances change. We can help you understand your position.

Does a dormant company still need a confirmation statement?

Yes, a confirmation statement is separate from dormant company accounts. Even if your company is dormant and files annual accounts, Companies House generally expects a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months to confirm the company’s registered office, directors, shareholders and other details are up to date. This requirement continues as long as the company remains registered.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

Companies House may issue late-filing penalties if the required accounts are not filed before the applicable deadline. The penalty amount depends on how late the accounts are and the company’s circumstances. Dormant status does not automatically prevent a late filing penalty. If you have missed a deadline, we can help you prepare the outstanding dormant company accounts and file them as soon as possible, and you may be able to appeal the penalty in some circumstances.

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

Yes. If you have missed the filing deadline for dormant company accounts, the first step is to prepare and file the outstanding accounts as soon as possible. Companies House may have issued a late-filing penalty, but addressing the overdue filing is important to avoid further non-compliance. We can review the situation, prepare the necessary dormant company accounts, and submit them on your behalf. Depending on the circumstances, it may be possible to appeal the penalty, though this is not guaranteed.
