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 Accounts?

A company may be considered dormant for accounting purposes if it has no significant accounting transactions during the period. This might apply to a company that has not yet started trading, has stopped trading, or is being retained for future use. However, dormancy depends on the specific circumstances and the relevant Companies House and accounting rules. Being dormant does not automatically remove the requirement to file annual accounts or submit a confirmation statement. It is also important to distinguish between dormancy for Companies House purposes and dormancy for Corporation Tax purposes – HMRC applies its own rules. A company that is dormant for Companies House may still need to file accounts and keep its record up to date. Similarly, a company with no sales or activity is not necessarily dormant under the applicable definitions. We can help you understand whether dormant company accounts are appropriate for your situation and what filing obligations remain.

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 statutory accounts prepared for a company that is dormant for accounting purposes. They are filed with Companies House and must meet the applicable requirements. Although the accounts are simplified compared with a full set of trading accounts, they are still a formal filing and need to be prepared correctly. We help eligible dormant companies prepare and file the required accounts.

Does a dormant company still need to file accounts?

Yes, in most cases. A company that is dormant for Companies House purposes generally still has to prepare and file annual accounts each year, unless a specific exemption applies. Dormant accounts are not 'no accounts' – they are a formal return showing that the company has no significant accounting transactions. Filing obligations depend on the company's circumstances and the relevant rules, so it is important to check what applies to you.

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

Companies House and HMRC have separate definitions and processes. A company may be dormant for Companies House purposes, meaning it has no significant accounting transactions and must file dormant accounts. For Corporation Tax, however, HMRC uses its own rules. A company that is dormant for Corporation Tax may need to notify HMRC, and may be able to stop filing Corporation Tax Returns once HMRC has confirmed this in writing. Filing dormant accounts with Companies House does not automatically tell HMRC that the company is dormant for tax purposes. We can help you understand both sets of requirements.

Does a dormant company still need a confirmation statement?

Yes. A confirmation statement is separate from dormant company accounts. It is submitted to Companies House and keeps your company information up to date, such as directors, shareholders and registered office. Even if your company is dormant, you must still file a confirmation statement at least once a year unless the company is exempt. This is a distinct obligation and cannot be replaced by dormant accounts.

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

Not necessarily, but it depends on your company's Corporation Tax position. If a company is dormant for Corporation Tax purposes and HMRC has agreed that returns are no longer required, then you may not need to submit further CT600 Corporation Tax Returns. However, you must notify HMRC and wait for confirmation. Simply being dormant for Companies House does not automatically stop Corporation Tax duties. Your company may still need to file returns until HMRC confirms otherwise.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

If your company is required to file dormant accounts and does not meet the Companies House deadline, it may be subject to late-filing penalties. The amount depends on how late the accounts are and the company's circumstances. Dormant status does not automatically protect a company from penalties. If you have overdue accounts, the filing obligation still needs to be completed. We can help you bring your filings up to date and support you with the relevant submissions.

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

Yes. A company that has never traded may be eligible to file dormant company accounts if it meets the relevant definition. This often applies to companies incorporated but not yet active, such as property SPVs or holding companies. We can review your company's situation and prepare the required accounts and any associated filing, so you remain compliant while the company stays dormant.

What information is needed to prepare dormant company accounts?

Even for dormant accounts, certain company information is required. This typically includes the company name, company registration number, the accounting period being covered, and details of directors and the registered office. We may also need to confirm that the company has had no significant accounting transactions. To prepare and file accurately, we guide you through the information required and make sure the accounts are submitted correctly to Companies House.
