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.

The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. 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 Your Halesowen Limited Company File Dormant Company Accounts?

A company may be considered dormant for Companies House purposes if it has had no significant accounting transactions during the accounting period. This can include companies that have not yet started trading, or those that have stopped trading and have no further activity. However, dormancy is not automatic simply because a company has no sales or is not currently trading. It also does not remove the filing obligations — a dormant company generally still needs to file annual accounts and submit a confirmation statement when required. Separate rules apply for Corporation Tax, and a company may be dormant for Companies House purposes but still have obligations to HMRC. We can help you understand whether your company qualifies as dormant and what filing requirements apply.

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 prepared for a company that is dormant for accounting purposes. They must meet the applicable Companies House requirements and are filed where required. Dormant accounts are not simply 'no accounts' — the company must still prepare accounts and file them unless a specific exemption applies.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

Yes, in most cases. A dormant company is generally still required to file annual accounts with Companies House unless it qualifies for a specific exemption. Dormant status does not automatically remove the obligation to file accounts, though the content may be simpler. Our accountants can help determine the exact requirement for your company.

Can a dormant company file micro-entity accounts?

It may be possible. Some dormant companies qualify as micro-entities under the Companies Act and may use the micro-entity reporting framework. However, not all dormant companies are micro-entities, and eligibility depends on size, legal structure and accounting period. We can review your circumstances to confirm whether micro-entity accounts are appropriate.

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

These are separate tests. A company may be dormant for Companies House purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions, but for Corporation Tax it must notify HMRC and meet separate requirements. Filing dormant company accounts with Companies House does not automatically tell HMRC that the company is dormant for tax purposes. Both authorities should be considered independently.

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

Not necessarily. If HMRC is satisfied that the company is dormant for Corporation Tax purposes, it may not need to file further Corporation Tax Returns once HMRC has confirmed this. However, this only applies after HMRC has been notified and agreed that a return is no longer required. If the company is not dormant for Corporation Tax, it must continue to file returns as required.

What information is needed to prepare dormant company accounts?

Generally we need basic company information such as directors' details, registered office address, shareholders and the company number, plus confirmation of the accounting period and whether there have been any reportable transactions. We also review any previous filings to prepare the accounts correctly. The exact information can vary, so it is sensible to speak with us before preparing the accounts.

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

Yes. We can assist with dormant company accounts for companies that have not yet started trading, as well as those that have stopped trading. As long as the company is eligible and the dormancy requirements are met, we can prepare and file the necessary accounts with Companies House on your behalf.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

Late filing can result in penalties from Companies House, even for dormant companies. The penalty amount varies depending on how late the filing is made. A late-filing penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. In certain circumstances a penalty appeal may be possible, but eligibility depends on the facts and Companies House rules. We can advise on your options if you have missed a deadline.
