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.

─── FRS 105 EXPLAINED

FRS 105 Explained: The Financial Reporting Standard for Micro-Entities

FRS 105 is the UK financial reporting standard written specifically for companies using the micro-entities regime. In simple terms, it is the rulebook that tells you how micro-entity financial statements should be put together and what they should contain. It is deliberately simpler than the standards used by larger companies: there is less emphasis on fair value adjustments and revaluation, fewer disclosure requirements, and a more straightforward approach to measuring things like debtors, creditors and fixed assets. That simplicity is the main attraction. Rather than producing a long set of notes explaining accounting policies and judgements, a qualifying company applying FRS 105 typically produces a shorter, more focused set of accounts covering the balance sheet, the profit and loss account and a small number of notes. Crucially, the micro-entities regime is an available accounting regime, not a compulsory one — a qualifying company can choose to apply it, and it is FRS 105 that applies when that choice is made. If a qualifying company decides not to use the micro-entities regime, a different framework such as FRS 102 would normally be used instead. Choosing between them affects how the figures are presented, so it is worth understanding what each option involves for your business before the accounts are prepared.

Who Can Use FRS 105 in the UK?

FRS 105 is available to companies that qualify for the UK micro-entities regime and choose to apply it — both parts matter. For accounting periods beginning on or after 6 April 2025, a company generally needs to meet at least 2 of the 3 applicable size conditions, subject to the relevant rules and exclusions: turnover of no more than £1 million, a balance sheet total of no more than £500,000, and an average of no more than 10 employees. Those figures give a useful indication of where the line broadly sits, but they are not the entire test. Other eligibility rules and exclusions can apply, and some companies are excluded from the regime altogether or from using it in particular circumstances. Meeting the size conditions therefore does not on its own guarantee that a company qualifies, and qualifying does not mean the regime must be used. If you are a director in Stockton-on-Tees weighing up whether FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts are the right fit, the sensible step is to have your company’s specific position reviewed against the current rules before any framework is applied.

A company generally needs to meet at least 2 of these 3 conditions.

Business Turnover

Annual Turnover of £1 Million or less. (£632,000 previously)

Balance Sheet

Balance sheet total of £500,000 or less.(£316,000 previously)

Company Size

On an average 10 or less employees
(10 or less previously)

─── What We Review

Everything Your Micro-Entity Company Is Required to Get Right

Most compliance problems are not deliberate. They come from a missed deadline, an accounts template that no longer matches FRS 105, or dividends taken without the paperwork to support them. Our review covers each area in turn and reports back in plain English.

 

FRS 105 Balance Sheet

A statutory balance sheet prepared to the FRS 105 format, using the reduced disclosure the micro-entities regime allows.

Profit & Loss Account

Required Notes & Disclosures

Preparation of the notes and disclosures required for the company's accounts under the applicable reporting requirements.

Corporation Tax Support

Separate Corporation Tax support can be provided where included in the agreed service. The Corporation Tax calculation is governed by tax rules rather than FRS 105.

Companies House Filing

Your FRS 105 accounts filed with Companies House in the correct format, before your accounts filing deadline.

Director Copy Pack

A full signed copy of your accounts and tax return, ready for your bank, mortgage lender or accountant records.

Professionally Prepared FRS 105 Accounts and Accurate Financial Reporting

Preparing FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts starts with your records: the bookkeeping, bank statements, sales and purchase information, payroll data, and any asset or liability details that sit behind your year-end position. From there, the accounts are built up in line with the micro-entity framework as it applies to your company’s circumstances, with the balance sheet, profit and loss account and supporting notes presented in the required format. It is important to keep two things distinct. The first is the preparation of the financial statements themselves and their filing with Companies House under the applicable company filing requirements. The second is Corporation Tax: a CT600 Corporation Tax Return is a separate submission made to HMRC, and it is not the same thing as the accounts. In practice, the figures in the two documents are closely related, so it makes sense to deal with them together where possible. What professional preparation offers is a structured, organised approach — accounts built from your actual records, presented in the correct format, and reconciled so that the numbers hold together. It is not a guarantee of any particular outcome, but it does reduce the risk of avoidable errors, inconsistencies or a filing that does not reflect what actually happened in the business.

FRS 105 is the UK financial reporting standard that applies to companies using the micro-entities regime. It sets out how micro-entity financial statements should be prepared and presented, and it is intentionally simpler than the standards used by larger companies. In practical terms, that means fewer accounting adjustments, fewer disclosure notes and a shorter, more straightforward set of accounts covering the balance sheet, profit and loss account and a small number of supporting notes.

FRS 105 is intended for companies that qualify for the micro-entities regime and choose to apply it. Qualifying is not the same as being required to use it — the regime is an available option, not a compulsory one. It is also worth noting that meeting the size conditions does not automatically settle the question, because other eligibility rules and exclusions can apply to particular companies or accounting periods. The reliable approach is to review your company's specific circumstances rather than assume eligibility from size alone.

For accounting periods beginning on or after 6 April 2025, a company generally needs to meet at least 2 of the 3 applicable size conditions, subject to the relevant rules and exclusions. Those conditions are turnover of no more than £1 million, a balance sheet total of no more than £500,000, and an average of no more than 10 employees. Meeting at least 2 of the 3 is the starting point rather than the whole test — other eligibility rules and exclusions can still affect whether a company qualifies, and different thresholds applied to earlier accounting periods.

No. The micro-entities regime is one available accounting regime among others, and a company that qualifies for it can still choose not to apply it. Where a qualifying company does choose to apply the micro-entities regime, FRS 105 is the standard that applies. Where it does not, a framework such as FRS 102 would normally be used instead. The choice affects how figures are presented and how much disclosure is required, so it is worth considering your options rather than defaulting to one approach.

The main difference is the level of complexity. FRS 105 is built around the micro-entities regime and keeps things deliberately simple, with limited measurement adjustments and fewer disclosures. FRS 102 is a fuller framework used by a much wider range of companies, and it generally involves more detailed accounting treatment, more judgements and more extensive notes to the accounts. FRS 105 is available only to companies using the micro-entities regime, so the two are not simply interchangeable alternatives for every business.

Companies that prepare accounts are subject to company filing requirements, and for most limited companies that means filing accounts with Companies House. FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts are prepared in the format required by the micro-entity framework, and the filing itself is a separate step from the preparation — the accounts are drawn up first, then filed in line with the applicable requirements. It is worth checking the specific requirements that apply to your company, as they can vary depending on factors such as company type and the period covered.

Yes, they are two distinct things. FRS 105 relates to the accounting and financial reporting framework used to prepare the financial statements. A CT600 is a Corporation Tax Return submitted to HMRC, which is a separate filing obligation with its own rules and deadlines. That said, the two are connected in practice, because the figures in the accounts typically form the starting point for the tax computation, which is why it can be efficient to prepare them in step with one another.

As a general guide, you would usually need your bookkeeping or accounting records for the period, bank statements and reconciliations, sales and purchase information, payroll details, details of any loans or finance agreements, and information about assets and liabilities at the year end. If accounts have been prepared before, the previous year's figures are helpful too, as they provide a comparative position. The exact list depends on how the company trades and what it owns or owes, so it is best to confirm requirements once your circumstances are known.
