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 Does It Mean When Company Accounts Are Overdue?

Company directors in Acton have a legal obligation to deliver certain accounts to Companies House by a statutory deadline. When that deadline passes and the required accounts have not been filed, the accounts become overdue. This can happen for many reasons — a busy trading period, a change of accountant, illness, or simply losing track of filing dates. Whatever the cause, it is important not to ignore the issue. Outstanding accounts usually remain due, and late filing can attract penalties that increase over time. The specific filing requirements and consequences depend on the company’s circumstances, including its size, accounting period and whether it is dormant. Even where a company has not traded, there may still be an obligation to file annual accounts. If you are a director with overdue accounts in Acton, taking prompt action can help you address the problem before it escalates.

─── 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.

What actually makes company accounts overdue?

Company accounts become overdue when they have not been delivered to Companies House by the statutory deadline that applies to the company. The deadline depends on factors such as the company's accounting reference date, reporting framework and particular circumstances. If the deadline passes and the required accounts have not been filed, the accounts are considered overdue. It is always worth checking your company's exact requirements rather than assuming no filing is needed.

If my company is dormant, can its accounts still be overdue?

Yes. A dormant company can still have filing obligations. Dormancy does not automatically exempt a company from preparing and delivering annual accounts to Companies House. The type of accounts required depends on the company's status and the relevant exemptions that may apply. If the applicable deadline has passed without delivery, the accounts are overdue, even if the company has not traded during the period.

What happens if I file my company's accounts late?

If accounts are delivered to Companies House after the applicable deadline, the company may be liable to a late-filing penalty. The penalty amount and whether one is imposed depend on how late the accounts are and the circumstances of the case. Filing late does not remove the requirement to file, and paying any penalty does not cancel the underlying obligation. Companies House can take further action if accounts remain outstanding for a significant period.

Does paying a late-filing penalty allow me to avoid filing the overdue accounts?

No. A late-filing penalty is an automatic consequence of delivering accounts late; it does not satisfy the requirement to provide the outstanding accounts. Even if a penalty is paid or you are considering an appeal, the accounts themselves still need to be prepared and filed with Companies House. Penalties and filing obligations are treated separately.

I have missed more than one accounting period. Can I file several years of overdue accounts?

Yes, but each outstanding accounting period usually needs to be addressed separately. Accounts for each period must be prepared in accordance with the accounting requirements applicable at the time, and delivered to Companies House for each relevant period. Filing one year does not automatically resolve other outstanding years. We can help you identify how many periods are affected and what records are needed.

Can I use micro-entity accounts to file overdue accounts?

If your company qualifies under the micro-entity accounting framework, it may be possible to prepare micro-entity accounts for the overdue period. However, eligibility depends on the company's size, legal structure and whether it meets the relevant criteria for that accounting period. You cannot simply assume micro-entity accounts are acceptable for every overdue filing. Our team can review your company's circumstances and confirm the appropriate reporting framework.

What information do I need to provide to have my overdue accounts prepared?

The exact records required depend on the accounting period and the state of your bookkeeping. Typically, we ask for bank statements, invoices, expense records, payroll summaries (if relevant), any previous accounts and company details such as Directors and registered office. We understand that some clients may have limited records, and we will let you know exactly what is needed after reviewing your situation.
