I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. 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.

I had a positive experience with Accotax. 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.

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.

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.

─── OVERDUE ACCOUNTS EXPLAINED

What Makes Dormant Company Accounts Overdue?

Company accounts must normally be delivered to Companies House by a statutory deadline linked to the company’s accounting reference period. When that deadline passes without the required accounts being filed, the accounts become overdue. Even dormant companies are not automatically exempt – many have an annual filing obligation simply because they are incorporated. Filing requirements depend on your company’s size, legal structure and the reporting framework that applies. Addressing overdue accounts promptly helps bring your company back into good standing, but the exact process and consequences vary from one company to another.

─── Why Choose Us

How Much Are Companies House Late Filing Penalties?

Penalties escalate the longer your accounts stay unfiled, and they double if your company also filed late in the previous financial year. Acting now is the single most effective way to cap what you owe.

How late the accounts are Private company Public company
Up to 1 month late
£150
£300
1 to 3 months late
£375
£750
3 to 6 months late

HMRC applies separate penalties for late Corporation Tax Returns, starting at £100 per return plus interest on unpaid tax. Companies House late-filing penalties can change, so check the current GOV.UK guidance for the latest penalty rules.

Overdue Company Accounts FAQs

Dormant company accounts are the annual accounts a company is required to file with Companies House when it has been dormant during the accounting period. Insolvency or civil penalties may apply, but even a company with no trading activity can have filing obligations. The accounts show that the company has had no significant transactions and may need to be prepared even if the company is not trading.

Accounts become overdue when the filing deadline passes without the required accounts being delivered to Companies House. Dormant companies are not automatically exempt from filing – the obligation depends on the company's status and reporting framework. Often the deadline is missed because a director assumes a dormant company does not need to file, or because administrative details were overlooked.

Yes, in most cases. A dormant company can still be required to file annual accounts with Companies House. Dormancy affects the content of the accounts, not the obligation to file. However, the exact requirements depend on your company's circumstances, including whether it has been dormant since incorporation or was previously trading. We can review your situation and confirm what needs to be filed.

Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty if accounts are delivered after the deadline. The penalty amount depends on how late the filing is and other factors. Paying the penalty does not remove the need to file the overdue accounts. The longer accounts remain outstanding, the more serious the consequences may become, so it is wise to act promptly.

No. Dormancy does not mean you can ignore overdue filing obligations. Companies House can take action against companies that persistently fail to file accounts, and this can put your company at risk of strike-off. Filing the outstanding accounts is usually necessary to bring the company back into compliance.

If more than one accounting period has passed without filing, you may need to prepare and file accounts for each outstanding period. This is separate from any confirmation statement or Corporation Tax obligations. We can help you identify the years that are overdue and work through them methodically.

Yes. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House, while Corporation Tax Returns (such as the CT600) are submitted to HMRC where applicable. Filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically satisfy HMRC obligations. If your company is dormant, you may need to notify HMRC separately. We can discuss the appropriate steps for your situation.

We can prepare outstanding statutory accounts and assist with submitting them to Companies House. We will also review your company's filing requirements and explain any separate obligations such as confirmation statements or Corporation Tax matters. While we cannot guarantee exemption from late-filing penalties, we can help you get the necessary documents filed correctly.
