Overdue company accounts are statutory accounts that should have been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline but were not. Every limited company has an obligation to file annual accounts unless it is exempt or has been dissolved. Once the deadline passes, the accounts are formally overdue, and the company should take steps to file them as soon as possible.
Yes, in most cases. A dormant company can still be required to file accounts with Companies House unless a specific exemption applies. Dormancy does not remove the obligation to deliver accounts by the relevant deadline. If the deadline has passed, the dormant company's accounts may be overdue, and the director should seek advice on what needs to be filed.
If accounts are delivered after the statutory deadline, Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty. The amount depends on how late the accounts are and the company's circumstances. Filing late does not remove the obligation to deliver the accounts. The company will still need to submit the outstanding accounts even if a penalty is issued.
No. Paying a late-filing penalty is separate from the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. Companies House can impose a penalty when accounts are delivered late, but the accounts themselves must still be prepared and submitted. An accountant can assist with preparing and filing the accounts, but cannot automatically cancel a penalty.
If more than one set of accounts is overdue, each outstanding accounting period will normally need to be prepared and filed separately. The company may also need to bring its confirmation statement up to date. Dealing with multiple years can be complex, so it is important to have accurate financial records from each period and to seek professional help where necessary.
The exact information will depend on the company's accounting period and circumstances. Common details include bank statements, invoices, expenses, previous accounts and company records. If some records are missing, we can review the position and discuss what options may be available. Preparing the accounts accurately is essential before they can be filed.
A company may use the micro-entity framework only if it qualifies based on its size, legal structure and accounting period. Not every small company automatically qualifies for micro-entity accounts. If the company is eligible, the accounts can be prepared on a simplified basis; otherwise, a different reporting framework will apply. We can review your eligibility and prepare the appropriate accounts.
Yes. Company accounts are filed with Companies House, while a Corporation Tax Return (CT600) is submitted to HMRC where applicable. Filing your overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically satisfy your Corporation Tax filing obligations. If your company also has an outstanding CT600, this must be dealt with separately with HMRC.
