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 Overdue Company Accounts Filing Mean for Your Business?

When a limited company misses its statutory deadline for delivering annual accounts to Companies House, those accounts become overdue. This can happen for a variety of reasons – perhaps you were unaware of the deadline, experienced an unexpected event, or simply put the filing aside during a busy period. Whatever the cause, the filing obligations do not disappear. Every overdue accounting period must still be addressed, and the required accounts need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where applicable. The exact requirements and any consequences depend on the company’s individual circumstances, including how late the accounts are and the company’s filing history. Taking prompt action to resolve overdue company accounts can help prevent matters from escalating, but it is important to understand that filing late does not automatically remove any late-filing penalty that may have been applied.

─── 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 exactly counts as overdue company accounts?

Company accounts are considered overdue when they have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. Each limited company must file annual accounts for each accounting period, and the deadline depends on the company’s accounting reference date and certain other circumstances. If that deadline passes without the accounts being filed, the accounts become overdue, even if the company has not been actively trading.

Why might company accounts become overdue?

There are many possible reasons why a company might miss its accounts filing deadline. Common situations include losing track of filing dates, not receiving reminder notices from Companies House, dealing with illness or personal issues, or simply not realising that dormant companies also have filing obligations. Whatever the reason, it is important to address overdue filing as soon as possible, because the filing obligation itself remains regardless of why it was missed.

Do I still need to file accounts that are overdue?

Yes. Even if the deadline has passed, the accounts for each outstanding accounting period still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House, unless the company is legally exempt. Filing overdue accounts is separate from any late-filing penalty that Companies House may have imposed. Dealing with the outstanding filing is the first step toward bringing the company’s record back up to date.

Can a dormant company have overdue company accounts?

Yes. A company can be dormant for Companies House purposes and still have a requirement to deliver annual accounts. Dormant status does not remove the filing obligation in all cases. If a dormant company misses its filing deadline, the accounts will become overdue just as they would for an active company. It is always worth checking whether any filings are outstanding, regardless of whether the company has traded.

What happens if I file company accounts late?

If accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty. The amount of the penalty can vary depending on how late the accounts are, and the penalty is automatic in many cases. However, a penalty does not remove the need to file the outstanding accounts. The accounts themselves still need to be prepared and submitted to Companies House to bring the company back into compliance.

Can an accountant help remove a late-filing penalty?

An accountant cannot automatically remove or cancel a late-filing penalty imposed by Companies House. Penalty appeals are handled separately, and any reduction or cancellation would depend on the specific circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules. What an accountant can do is help you prepare and file the overdue accounts correctly, which is essential regardless of any penalty appeal you may wish to pursue.

What information is needed to prepare overdue accounts?

The information required to prepare overdue accounts will depend on the company’s individual circumstances, its size, and the accounting period in question. Typically, you will need details of income and expenditure, bank statements, invoices, expense records, and any relevant accounting records. If previous accounts have been filed, those can also help. For companies that have been dormant, supporting records may be simpler, but the company’s specific situation will determine what is needed.

Are overdue accounts the same as Corporation Tax Returns?

No. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House, while Corporation Tax Returns (such as the CT600, where applicable) are submitted to HMRC. These are separate compliance obligations. Even if you file overdue accounts with Companies House, you may still have separate Corporation Tax filing requirements to address with HMRC. Micro Entity Accounts can help you understand what applies to your company so you can deal with each outstanding matter appropriately.
