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.

 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.

─── OVERDUE ACCOUNTS EXPLAINED

Understanding Overdue Dormant Company Accounts in Thornton Heath

When a limited company fails to deliver its statutory accounts to Companies House by the applicable deadline, those accounts become overdue. For dormant companies, it is easy to assume that no filing is required because there has been no trading activity – but that assumption can lead to outstanding obligations. Whether you are dealing with a single missed filing or several overdue accounting periods, it is important to address Dormant Company Accounts promptly. The exact requirements depend on your company’s circumstances, including its accounting reference period and whether it qualifies for any reporting exemptions. Micro Entity Accounts can review your situation and help you prepare and file the necessary accounts with Companies House.

─── 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	£750	£1,500
More than 6 months late	£1,500	£3,000

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.

─── FAQs

Overdue 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 does it mean if a dormant company’s accounts are overdue?

It means that the statutory annual accounts for your dormant company have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. The company’s obligations do not necessarily disappear simply because it is dormant; you may still be required to file accounts each year. If the deadline has passed, the accounts are considered overdue and should be dealt with as soon as possible.

My dormant company hasn’t traded for years. Does it still need to file accounts?

Yes, in many cases a dormant company still has a legal obligation to file annual accounts with Companies House, unless it is specifically exempt. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. If your company has failed to file its accounts by the relevant deadlines, those filings will remain outstanding even if the company has not traded. We can help you establish what is required based on your company’s circumstances.

The filing deadline has passed. Can I still file my dormant company accounts?

Yes, you can still file overdue accounts, though the filing will be marked as late. It is important to submit the outstanding accounts to Companies House even after the deadline, as ignoring the obligation can lead to further consequences. We can prepare the necessary accounts and file them with Companies House on your behalf, helping to bring your filing record up to date.

What happens if Companies House receives my overdue accounts?

Once Companies House receives the overdue accounts, it will update the company’s record to show that the filing has been made. However, receiving the accounts does not automatically prevent a late-filing penalty from being issued, and it does not remove the fact that the accounts were late. If a penalty is imposed, it will be a separate matter from the requirement to file the outstanding accounts.

Will I have to pay a late-filing penalty even if I file now?

Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty whenever accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty amount can vary depending on how late the accounts are and the circumstances of the company. Filing the overdue accounts as soon as possible is still essential, but it does not guarantee that a penalty will not be applied. If you receive a penalty notice, you may be able to appeal, but any appeal is subject to Companies House rules and your specific circumstances.

If I pay the penalty, do I still have to file the accounts?

Yes. Paying a late-filing penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. The penalty is a separate consequence of delivering accounts late, while the obligation to file remains. Even if you have paid a penalty, you must still ensure that the overdue accounts are prepared and delivered to Companies House.

I have more than one outstanding accounting period. How do I handle this?

If your company has missed several accounting periods, each set of accounts will normally need to be prepared and filed separately. Filing one set of overdue accounts does not automatically resolve earlier or later outstanding periods. The specific periods involved, the company’s reporting framework, and the applicable deadlines all need to be reviewed. We can assess your position and help prepare the required accounts for each outstanding period.

Could my company be struck off because of overdue dormant company accounts?

Persistent failure to file accounts with Companies House can increase the risk of enforcement action, including compulsory strike-off. However, not every company with overdue accounts is automatically struck off, and Companies House will usually issue warnings before taking such action. If you have received a strike-off notice, it is important to seek professional advice promptly. We can help you understand your options and assist with outstanding filings where appropriate.
