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 Company Accounts in Ryde?

A company may be able to file dormant company accounts if it has had no significant accounting transactions during the relevant accounting period. This can apply to companies that have not yet started trading, have stopped trading or are being kept for future use. However, dormancy is not simply the same as having no sales or no employees. For Companies House purposes, a company must normally meet the definition of a dormant company under the Companies Act, and the exact position depends on its circumstances. It is also important to distinguish between dormancy for Companies House and dormancy for HMRC. A company that is dormant for Companies House purposes may still have Corporation Tax obligations, and HMRC rules are separate. A company may therefore still need to prepare and file annual accounts, submit a confirmation statement and, depending on its Corporation Tax status, file a Company Tax Return. Being dormant does not remove a company’s legal responsibilities or its requirement to meet applicable filing deadlines. If you are a director of a dormant company in Ryde, we can help you determine whether dormant company accounts are appropriate and ensure the correct filings are made on time.

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 qualifies as dormant under the Companies Act. In simple terms, a company is usually dormant for Companies House purposes if it has had no significant accounting transactions during the accounting period. The accounts must still be filed with Companies House unless a specific exemption applies, and they must comply with the applicable reporting framework. Our accountants can prepare the required accounts for your dormant company in Ryde, ensuring the information is presented correctly.

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 a specific exemption applies, such as being exempt from audit and meeting the eligibility criteria for a simpler filing option. Dormant company accounts are not optional simply because the company has no trading activity. If the company fails to file on time, it may be subject to late-filing penalties. We can help you understand exactly what your dormant company needs to file.

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

Being dormant for Companies House means the company has had no significant accounting transactions that need to be included in its accounts. Being dormant for Corporation Tax purposes is a separate test used by HMRC. A company may be dormant for Companies House but still be active for Corporation Tax, meaning it may need to keep filing Corporation Tax Returns. If a company is also dormant for Corporation Tax, it may need to notify HMRC and may stop receiving the requirement to file returns once HMRC has confirmed this. Because the two definitions are different, you should review both positions carefully. We can help you understand which rules apply to your company.

Does a dormant company still need a confirmation statement?

Yes. Filing dormant company accounts does not replace the confirmation statement. A confirmation statement is a separate filing with Companies House that confirms the company's registered office, directors, shareholders and other statutory information. Even if the company is dormant, it must keep Companies House up to date and submit a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months. If your company in Ryde is dormant, we can help you manage both requirements.

What happens if dormant company accounts are filed late?

Dormant companies are not automatically protected from late-filing penalties. If the required dormant accounts are not submitted by the relevant deadline, Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty. The amount can vary depending on how late the accounts are filed, and in certain circumstances a company may be able to appeal the penalty if it has a reasonable excuse. Filing the outstanding accounts as soon as possible is still necessary. We can help you prepare and file the accounts and, where appropriate, assist with the process of appealing a penalty.

What information is needed to prepare dormant company accounts?

To prepare dormant company accounts, we generally need the company's details from Companies House, including the directors and registered office, along with details of any significant transactions during the year. For most dormant companies, the accounts will be very simple, but they must still reflect the correct position. We will review the company's records and confirm whether any transactions have taken place that would prevent it from being treated as dormant. If you have kept company records, even if you are a dormant company in Ryde, our accountants can work from those to prepare the accounts.

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

Yes. A company that has been incorporated but has not yet started trading can still file dormant company accounts, provided it has had no significant accounting transactions during the period. This is common for companies set up for a future project or a property SPV that has not yet become active. However, the company must still comply with its filing obligations, including the confirmation statement and any Corporation Tax requirements. We can prepare and file the dormant accounts on your behalf and confirm the ongoing filing position.
