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

Understanding Overdue Company Accounts and Why They Matter

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable statutory deadline for delivering them to Companies House has passed without the accounts being filed. Every company has its own accounting reference period, so the exact deadline can vary depending on when the company was incorporated, whether the period has been shortened or extended, and other factors. Once the deadline has passed, the accounts are considered late, and the company’s filing obligations remain outstanding. Directors should address overdue accounts promptly because continued non-compliance can lead to late-filing penalties, regulatory action, and in persistent cases, an increased risk of compulsory strike-off. The specific requirements and potential consequences always depend on the company’s own circumstances, so it is important to review the position individually rather than assume a one-size-fits-all outcome.

─── 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 the annual statutory accounts that a company was required to deliver to Companies House by a certain deadline, but which were not filed in time. Once the applicable deadline passes without the accounts being delivered, they become overdue. The filing deadline depends on the company's accounting reference period and circumstances, so what counts as overdue can vary from one company to another.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy does not automatically exempt a company from filing annual accounts. Even if a company is dormant and has not been trading, it may still have an obligation to deliver certain accounts to Companies House each year. A dormant company can therefore have overdue accounts if the required filing was not submitted by the applicable deadline, and the same late-filing consequences may apply depending on the circumstances.

Do I still need to file accounts if they are overdue?

Yes. Overdue accounts still need to be delivered to Companies House where the filing obligation applies. Submitting the outstanding accounts is the primary way to bring the company's compliance record up to date. Ignoring the obligation will not make it disappear, and the longer the accounts remain outstanding, the more serious the situation may become.

Will I automatically receive a late-filing penalty?

Companies House can impose late-filing penalties when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty amount is not fixed for every company and depends on when the accounts were due and how late they are. Whether a penalty is applied and the exact amount depend on the specific circumstances, so not every overdue filing results in the same penalty.

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

Paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts. The penalty is a separate matter from the obligation to deliver statutory accounts to Companies House. Even if a penalty is paid or an appeal is unsuccessful, the overdue accounts must still be prepared and filed to bring the company back into compliance.

What happens if my company has more than one year of overdue accounts?

If more than one accounting period is outstanding, each set of accounts may need to be prepared and delivered separately to Companies House. Filing one year does not automatically resolve other outstanding periods. The exact number of sets required depends on how many filing obligations have been missed and the company's accounting reference dates.

Can overdue accounts affect my company's status?

Persistent failure to file accounts can lead to regulatory action by Companies House. While not every overdue company is immediately struck off, continued non-compliance increases the risk of compulsory strike-off. If a company has already received a warning notice or has been dissolved, the situation may involve separate restoration or legal steps, but filing overdue accounts is still an important part of resolving the compliance issue.

What information is needed to prepare overdue accounts?

Preparing overdue accounts typically requires financial records for the relevant accounting period, such as bank statements, invoices, expense records, and details of any loans or director transactions. Previous accounts and company information may also be needed. The specific documents depend on the company's circumstances and which accounting periods are outstanding. A qualified accountant can confirm exactly what is required.

Are Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements separate from overdue accounts?

Yes. Overdue accounts relate to the annual statutory accounts that must be filed with Companies House. Corporation Tax Returns, such as the CT600, are submitted separately to HMRC where applicable. A confirmation statement is also a separate Companies House filing that must be kept up to date. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy these other obligations, and each may need to be addressed independently.
