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 Makes Company Accounts Overdue?

Under UK company law, private limited companies must deliver annual statutory accounts to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. When that deadline passes without the accounts being delivered, the accounts become overdue. The deadline itself can depend on factors such as the company’s accounting reference date, its age, and whether the filing is for a first accounting period or a subsequent one. Even if a company has stopped trading, is dormant, or has no current income, it may still have an obligation to file accounts for each relevant accounting period. Failing to address overdue accounts can lead to late-filing penalties and further regulatory attention. Each company’s circumstances are different, so it is important to check exactly which accounting periods are outstanding and what reporting framework applies before preparing the necessary documents.

─── 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.

─── FAQs

Overdue Company Accounts FAQs

Still unsure where you stand? Reach out to our UK team at info@microentityaccounts.co.uk and we will review your filing history with you.

What exactly are overdue company accounts?

Overdue company accounts are statutory accounts that have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. Every private limited company must normally deliver accounts for each accounting period, and when the deadline passes without submission, those accounts become overdue. The specific deadline depends on the company's accounting reference date and other circumstances.

Does my company still need to file accounts if they are overdue?

Yes. Overdue accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House. Filing them late is usually better than not filing at all, although late filing can attract penalties. The longer accounts remain outstanding, the more serious the potential consequences may become. We can review your company's position and help you prepare the required accounts for each outstanding period.

Can a dormant company have overdue company accounts?

Yes. Dormant companies can still have Companies House filing obligations, although different rules may apply depending on whether the company qualifies as dormant for accounting purposes. If a dormant company fails to deliver accounts by the statutory deadline, those accounts become overdue just as they would for an active company. Dormancy is separate from the filing requirement.

What happens if I file accounts after the deadline?

If accounts are filed after the applicable deadline, Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty. The amount of the penalty depends on how late the accounts are and other factors. Paying the penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. The filing obligation remains, and we can assist with preparing and submitting the overdue accounts to Companies House.

I have several years of overdue accounts. Can you help with all of them?

Yes, we can help prepare and file accounts for multiple outstanding accounting periods. Each year must be addressed separately, and the correct reporting framework needs to be determined for each period. We will review your company's filing history and work through the overdue periods in a structured way to bring your Companies House record up to date.

Are overdue accounts the same as a confirmation statement?

No. Annual accounts and confirmation statements are separate filing requirements. A confirmation statement confirms that the company's registered information on the Companies House register is up to date, while annual accounts report on the company's financial position. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically replace the need to file a confirmation statement or keep other company information current.

If my company has received a strike-off notice, can I still file overdue accounts?

If Companies House has begun strike-off action because of persistent non-compliance, the situation is more serious than a standard overdue accounts filing. Filing the outstanding accounts may help, but it does not automatically prevent or reverse a strike-off process. If a company has already been dissolved, separate restoration procedures may be required. In such cases, we recommend seeking professional advice promptly to understand the options available.

What information do you need to prepare my overdue company accounts?

The information required depends on the company's circumstances and the accounting periods involved. Typically, we need bank statements, invoices, expense records, previous accounts if any, details of any loans or directors' transactions, and confirmation of the company's reporting framework. We will guide you through the documents needed and advise on the most efficient way to proceed.
