Overdue company accounts are statutory accounts that have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. Every company has its own accounting reference date and filing deadline, which can depend on its incorporation date and accounting period. When the deadline passes without the required accounts being filed, the accounts are considered overdue.
There are many reasons accounts can become overdue. A director may have overlooked the deadline, faced difficulty gathering financial records, or assumed that a non-trading company did not need to file. Whatever the reason, it is important to address the outstanding filing as soon as possible to avoid further compliance issues.
In most cases, yes. Overdue statutory accounts must still be prepared and delivered to Companies House, even if the deadline has passed. The requirement to file does not disappear simply because the accounts are late. A company may also have other outstanding compliance obligations, such as confirmation statements, that need to be dealt with separately.
Yes. A dormant company can still have overdue accounts if it failed to deliver its annual accounts to Companies House by the required deadline. Dormancy, where it applies, may affect the content of the accounts, but it does not automatically remove the filing obligation. Each company's circumstances need to be reviewed carefully.
If accounts are delivered after the statutory deadline, Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty. The amount of the penalty and whether it applies depends on the company's circumstances and how late the accounts are filed. Paying any penalty does not remove the need to file the outstanding accounts. Filing as soon as possible can help reduce the risk of further consequences.
Yes. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House, while Corporation Tax Returns, such as the CT600, are submitted to HMRC where applicable. They are separate compliance matters. Filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically satisfy any Corporation Tax filing obligations you may have, and vice versa.
The information required depends on the company's circumstances and the accounting period in question. It may include bank statements, invoices, expense records, payroll information, details of any loans or directors' transactions, and previous accounts if they exist. Our team can review your situation and let you know exactly what is needed.
Micro Entity Accounts can assist by preparing the outstanding annual accounts and submitting them to Companies House on your behalf. We can also help you understand your filing obligations, review whether micro-entity accounts or another reporting framework is appropriate, and support you with any related compliance matters. Our qualified accountants provide clear, practical guidance for Farnborough-based companies facing overdue accounts.
