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

What Happens When Dormant Company Accounts Are Overdue?

Every limited company, including those that are dormant, has a statutory obligation to deliver accounts to Companies House by a specified deadline. Dormancy does not remove that duty, so if the filing date passes and no accounts are received, the accounts become overdue. Directors may assume that a non-trading company can simply ignore the requirement, but this is not the case: penalties can be issued, and a pattern of non-filing can damage the company’s compliance record. What is required in each situation depends on the company’s circumstances, such as its accounting period and whether it qualifies for any micro-entity or small-company reporting options. The sensible route is to address any overdue filing promptly so that the company can return to a compliant footing.

─── 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 are dormant company accounts?

Dormant company accounts are the annual accounts that a limited company must prepare and deliver to Companies House for a financial year in which the company has been dormant. Many dormant companies can file accounts on a simpler basis, but the legal requirement to file remains. Whether a company qualifies as dormant depends on its activities and the details of the accounting period.

When do dormant company accounts become overdue?

Accounts become overdue when the statutory deadline has passed without the required accounts being delivered to Companies House. Even if the company is dormant, this deadline still applies. The precise deadline can vary according to the company’s accounting reference date and its individual circumstances, so it is important to check the relevant date for your own company.

Do dormant companies still need to file accounts if they have no trading activity?

Yes. Dormancy does not automatically remove the need to file accounts with Companies House. Even a company that has not traded may have annual filing obligations. If the required accounts are not delivered by the deadline, the filing becomes overdue and the company may face late-filing penalties.

What happens if I file dormant company accounts late?

Filing late can result in automatic late-filing penalties from Companies House. The penalty amount depends on how late the accounts are, although we cannot provide specific figures here. The longer the delay, the more serious the position can become. If your accounts are already overdue, it is still better to file them as soon as possible rather than waiting for further reminders or escalation.

Does paying a late-filing penalty remove the need to file the overdue accounts?

No. Paying a penalty does not satisfy the filing obligation. The company still needs to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts to Companies House. The penalty relates to the late filing itself, while the separate requirement to file the actual accounts remains. If a penalty has been issued, your overdue accounts should still be filed without further delay.

Can a dormant company be struck off because of overdue accounts?

Companies House may take action against companies that persistently fail to meet their filing obligations, and repeated overdue filings can increase the risk of compulsory strike-off. This does not mean every overdraft company is automatically removed from the register, but continued non-compliance can lead to more serious consequences. If your company has received a strike-off notice or has already been struck off, this is separate from simply filing overdue accounts and you should seek professional advice on restoration options.

What information is needed to prepare overdue dormant company accounts?

The exact information required depends on the company’s circumstances and whether it qualifies for a simpler reporting framework such as micro-entity accounts. Typically, we may need details of the company’s directors and shareholders, the accounting period, copies of prior filings, any bank statements or loan documents, and confirmation that the company has not traded. Our team will help you confirm exactly what is needed before the accounts are prepared.

How can Micro Entity Accounts help with overdue dormant company accounts?

Micro Entity Accounts can review your company’s filing position and assist with preparing and delivering the outstanding dormant company accounts to Companies House. We work with directors in Windlesham to understand whether the company qualifies as dormant, which reporting framework applies, and which accounting periods need to be covered. Our role is to make the process accurate and straightforward, and we can also advise on how to deal with any late-filing notice you may have received. We cannot guarantee penalty removal, but we can help you file what is required and provide clarity on your next steps.
