 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.

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.

───Late filing explained

Understanding Late Micro-Entity Accounts Filing

Late micro-entity accounts filing occurs when an eligible company fails to deliver its statutory accounts to Companies House by the applicable deadline. Even if the deadline has passed, the accounts must still be prepared and filed to meet the company’s legal obligations. Depending on how late the filing is, Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty, and we can assist in preparing and submitting the outstanding accounts to help you get back on track.

Companies House Late Filing Penalties

Penalties are charged automatically based on how late your accounts are delivered, and they double where accounts were also filed late for the previous financial year. The figures below apply to accounts delivered after the statutory deadline.

How late the accounts are	Private company	Public company
Up to 1 month late	£150	£750
1 to 3 months late	£375	£1,500
3 to 6 months late	£750	£3,000
More than 6 months late	£1,500	£7,500

Penalty levels are set by Companies House and may change. Separate HMRC penalties and interest may apply to late Corporation Tax Returns and unpaid tax. View the latest Companies House late filing penalty guidance.

─── Our late filing service

What's Included in Our Late Micro-Entity Filing Service?

Our fixed-fee service covers the accounts and filing requirements typically needed by qualifying micro-entity companies, from preparation to submission.

Overdue Accounts Preparation

We review the available bank statements, invoices and financial records and prepare the relevant micro-entity accounts based on the information available and the applicable reporting requirements.

Companies House Late Filing

Where applicable, we prepare the relevant statutory accounts and complete the Companies House filing process once the required information and approvals are in place.

Late Corporation Tax Returns

We prepare and file the matching CT600 returns with HMRC, calculate the tax due and confirm interest or penalty positions.

Multiple Year Catch-Up

Two, three or more years behind? We review each outstanding accounting period and prepare the relevant accounts in an appropriate sequence based on your company's circumstances and filing requirements.

Penalty Appeal Support

Where appropriate, we can review whether there may be grounds for an appeal and assist with preparing relevant supporting information. Any decision remains with the relevant authority.

Strike-Off & Dormant Filings

We can review the circumstances of a dormant company or proposed strike-off and help identify the relevant outstanding filing requirements.

The Consequences of Repeatedly Filing Late

Continuing to file statutory accounts late can lead to escalating penalties and further enforcement action from Companies House. While each case is assessed on its own merits, persistent non-compliance may result in more serious consequences, including potential strike-off proceedings in extreme circumstances.

Repeated late filing can lead to increased financial penalties, which may accumulate for each overdue accounting period.
Companies House may take action to strike off a company that consistently fails to meet its filing obligations, which could have serious implications for the business and its directors.

Behind on More Than One Accounting Period?

If your company has more than one outstanding set of accounts, the situation may require a review of the company’s filing history and available financial records. Micro Entity Accounts can help you understand which periods may need attention and discuss the work required to prepare the relevant outstanding accounts.

─── FAQs

Late Filing FAQs

Reach out to our UK team any time at info@microentityaccounts.co.uk. We are always happy to assist you.

What does late micro-entity accounts filing mean?

Late micro-entity accounts filing refers to submitting statutory accounts to Companies House after the statutory deadline has passed. For a micro-entity, these accounts are prepared under the micro-entity framework and FRS 105. If the deadline is missed, the company is in default and should file the overdue accounts as soon as possible to minimise any potential penalties.

What happens if micro-entity accounts are filed late?

If micro-entity accounts are filed late, Companies House will typically issue a late-filing penalty. The amount of the penalty depends on how late the accounts are submitted and the specific rules applicable at the time. The penalty is automatic and does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. Our team can assist in preparing and filing the overdue accounts to help you meet your obligations.

Do overdue accounts still need to be filed with Companies House?

Yes, overdue accounts must still be filed with Companies House. The late-filing penalty is separate from the filing requirement, and failing to file the accounts leaves the company in continued default. Filing the overdue accounts is essential to bring the company back into compliance and avoid further penalties or enforcement action.

Can a company still qualify as a micro-entity if its accounts are overdue?

Micro-entity eligibility is based on the company's size and financial position, not on whether its accounts are filed on time. For accounting periods beginning on or after 6 April 2025, a company generally qualifies as a micro-entity if it meets at least two of the following conditions: annual 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. However, qualification also depends on other factors, such as whether the company is part of a group. We can review your circumstances to confirm eligibility.

What is FRS 105 and how does it apply to overdue micro-entity accounts?

FRS 105 is the financial reporting standard that applies to eligible micro-entities in the UK. It provides a simplified reporting framework, with reduced disclosure requirements compared to other standards. If your company qualifies as a micro-entity, its overdue accounts must be prepared in accordance with FRS 105 and the micro-entity provisions of the Companies Act. Our accountants are experienced in preparing FRS 105 accounts for late filings.

Are overdue accounts filed with Companies House and is a Corporation Tax Return also required?

Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House, while Corporation Tax Returns (CT600) are submitted to HMRC. These are separate obligations with different deadlines. Filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically complete your HMRC Corporation Tax filing. If your Corporation Tax Return is also outstanding, we can assist with preparing and submitting it to HMRC as well.

Can you help if more than one accounting period is overdue?

Yes, we can assist with preparing and filing micro-entity accounts for multiple overdue accounting periods. This may involve reconstructing accounts from available records, which can be complex, but our team has the expertise to handle such situations. We will work through each period systematically to bring your company's filing history up to date.

What information is needed to prepare overdue micro-entity accounts?

To prepare overdue micro-entity accounts, we typically need the company's financial records for the relevant period, including bank statements, income and expense records, and details of any assets or liabilities. If records are incomplete, we can help reconstruct them where possible. We will guide you on exactly what is required to proceed.

Can an accountant help with late micro-entity accounts filing?

Yes, a qualified accountant can help bring your late micro-entity accounts up to date. We can prepare the accounts in accordance with FRS 105, file them with Companies House, and advise on any associated penalties. While we cannot guarantee that penalties will be reduced or removed, we can assist with the filing process and, where appropriate, discuss penalty appeal options with you.
