Overdue company accounts are statutory accounts that have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. The deadline depends on the company's accounting reference date and certain other circumstances, so it is important to check the specific due date for your company rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all rule.
Yes, in most cases. Dormant companies usually have an annual filing obligation to Companies House unless they meet a specific exemption. If a dormant company has missed its filing deadline, the accounts are overdue just like those of a trading company. Dormancy does not automatically remove the requirement to file accounts, so it is important to check the company's obligations.
Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty once accounts are delivered after the statutory deadline. The amount depends on how late the filing is and the company's circumstances, and it is calculated according to a fixed scale. Filing the overdue accounts does not automatically cancel or reduce the penalty, but it ensures the company's filing record is brought up to date and helps avoid further escalation.
Yes, overdue accounts can still be filed after Companies House has sent a warning or reminder. The filing obligation remains, and preparing and submitting the outstanding accounts is the right course of action. If the company has received a strike-off notice or is already in the process of being struck off, the situation may require additional advice, and filing overdue accounts alone might not reverse that process.
We can assist with preparing accounts for each outstanding accounting period where required. Every period with an unmet filing obligation may need to be addressed separately, so a company could have several sets of overdue accounts. We will review your company's situation and help you understand which filings are needed, subject to the availability of the necessary financial information.
No. Paying a late-filing penalty does not remove the requirement to file the overdue accounts. The penalty is a separate consequence of late delivery, and Companies House will still expect the outstanding accounts to be submitted. If you have already received a penalty notice, you should still address the underlying filing obligation without delay.
Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, but eligibility depends on factors such as the company's size, accounting period and legal structure. It is not automatic simply because a business is small. We can determine whether micro-entity accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts is appropriate for your company's overdue filing, depending on the circumstances.
Typically, we need the company's registered details, bank statements, invoices, expense records and any transaction records for the relevant accounting period. The exact information required depends on the company's circumstances and the reporting framework that applies. We will confirm what we need once we understand your situation, and we will guide you through each step clearly.
