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.

─── OVERDUE ACCOUNTS EXPLAINED

Why Dormant Company Accounts Become Overdue

Company accounts generally need to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. When that deadline passes without the required accounts being filed, the accounts are considered overdue. This can happen to any company, including those that are dormant and have not traded during the accounting period. Dormancy does not automatically remove the need to file annual accounts, and where a dormant company misses its filing date, the outstanding accounts should still be prepared and delivered to Companies House. The specific requirements and any consequences will depend on the company’s circumstances, such as how overdue the accounts are and whether other filings are outstanding. Addressing overdue accounts promptly can help bring the company back into compliance and avoid the situation becoming more serious.

─── 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 my dormant company accounts are overdue?

If your dormant company has not delivered its annual accounts to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline, those accounts are considered overdue. This means the filing deadline has passed, and the required accounts remain outstanding. It is separate from whether the company has traded; even dormant companies can have overdue filing obligations.

Can a company be dormant and still have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy refers to a company having no significant accounting transactions during the period, but it does not automatically exempt the company from filing accounts with Companies House. If a dormant company fails to file its accounts by the deadline, those accounts will become overdue.

Do I need to file annual accounts for a dormant company in Westerham Kent?

Most UK companies, including those that are dormant, are required to deliver accounts to Companies House each year, unless a specific exemption applies to the company's particular circumstances. Dormant companies may have simpler reporting requirements, but the obligation to file accounts is generally separate from whether the company is trading.

What happens if I file my dormant company accounts late?

If accounts are submitted after the filing deadline, Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty. The penalty amount and whether one is issued can depend on how late the filing is and the company's previous compliance record. Paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts.

What should I do if my dormant company has more than one year of overdue accounts?

If a company has more than one accounting period with outstanding accounts, each period will typically need its own accounts prepared and filed with Companies House. It is important to address every overdue year rather than assuming one filing will cover everything. We can assist in reviewing which periods are outstanding and preparing the required accounts.

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

Persistent failure to meet Companies House filing obligations can increase the risk of enforcement action, including possible compulsory strike-off. However, not every overdue filing will lead to dissolution. If your company has received a warning or strike-off notice, you should act quickly and consider professional advice, as the situation may require steps beyond ordinary filing.

What information is needed to prepare and file overdue dormant company accounts?

Typically we need information about the company's directors, shareholders, registered office and confirmation of whether it had any reportable transactions during the accounting period. Copies of previously filed accounts, if any, can also be helpful. The exact information required depends on the company's individual circumstances and how many periods are overdue.

Are Corporation Tax Returns the same as dormant company accounts filed with Companies House?

No. Dormant company accounts are statutory accounts filed with Companies House. A Corporation Tax Return (CT600) is submitted to HMRC and reflects the company's tax position. These are separate obligations, and filing one does not automatically satisfy the other. Both may need attention depending on the company's situations.
