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.

 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 and Why It Matters

Company accounts are considered overdue when they have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. For many limited companies in Dorchester Dorset, the deadline is linked to the company’s accounting reference date, but the precise date can depend on a range of circumstances. When accounts become overdue, it is important to address them without delay. Filing obligations do not disappear, and the longer accounts remain outstanding, the more likely it is that the company may face additional consequences. Micro Entity Accounts can review your company’s filing history, identify the relevant outstanding periods and help you prepare the required annual accounts for submission to Companies House. Because every company is different, the appropriate form of accounts and the steps needed to bring filing up to date will depend on your company’s size, activity and reporting framework.

─── 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.

How can I tell if my company accounts are overdue?

Your company accounts are overdue if they were not delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. The precise deadline depends on factors such as your company's accounting reference period, whether it is a private or public company, and any extensions that might apply. You can check your filing obligations on the Companies House register or by reviewing the correspondence you have received.

Do I still need to file overdue accounts if my company has stopped trading?

Yes, in most cases. If your company was required to file annual accounts with Companies House and the deadline has passed, the filing obligation still exists even if the company has stopped trading. Non-trading activity does not automatically remove the requirement to file overdue accounts. If the company is dormant, different rules may apply, but dormancy does not necessarily exempt a company from filing annual accounts. We can review your specific circumstances to determine what filing is required.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes, a dormant company can have overdue accounts if it failed to deliver accounts by the applicable deadline. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate matters. While dormant companies may qualify for simpler filing requirements, they still need to meet any Companies House filing obligations that apply to them. If you are unsure whether your dormant company needs to file overdue accounts, we can help confirm the position.

What happens if I file my accounts late with Companies House?

If accounts are delivered after the statutory deadline, Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty. The amount of the penalty depends on how late the accounts are and whether the company was previously late, but we do not advise relying on a single penalty figure because every case is different. Even if a penalty is issued, the overdue accounts still need to be filed. Micro Entity Accounts cannot guarantee that a penalty will be waived, but we can assist you with preparing and submitting the overdue accounts and, if appropriate, you may consider whether a penalty appeal is supported by the facts.

If I pay a late-filing penalty, do I still need to file the overdue accounts?

Yes. Paying a late-filing penalty does not remove the requirement to deliver the outstanding accounts to Companies House. The penalty relates to the late delivery, while the obligation to file remains separate. If you have already received a penalty notice, it is important to file the overdue accounts as soon as possible to prevent further non-compliance. Our team can help you prepare and file the accounts while you deal with any penalty separately.

What if my company has more than one overdue accounting period?

When a company has multiple outstanding accounting periods, each set of accounts generally needs to be prepared and filed separately. Companies House expects to receive the accounts for every period that has passed its filing deadline. This can mean preparing several years of accounts, depending on how long the company has been non-compliant. We can review your filing history, identify all outstanding periods and assist with preparing the required accounts for submission.

What information do I need to provide for my overdue company accounts to be prepared?

The exact information required will depend on your company's circumstances and the accounting period involved. Typically, we need your company details, previous accounts if available, bank statements, transaction records, invoice and expense information, and any other financial information that helps build an accurate picture. If records are incomplete, we can discuss what is available and work with you to prepare the accounts as fully as possible.

Has my company received a strike-off warning because of overdue accounts? What should I do?

If Companies House has issued a warning about possible strike-off action due to persistent non-filing, this is a serious situation. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically stop a strike-off process, and restoration may require separate action if the company has already been dissolved. If you have received such a warning, we recommend seeking advice promptly. Micro Entity Accounts can help prepare the overdue accounts so they are ready for filing, but dealing with a strike-off notice or restoration may involve additional legal considerations.
