It simply means the company has not delivered its annual accounts to Companies House by the statutory deadline that applies to that accounting period. The length of time will depend on the company’s reference date and any permitted extensions, but once the deadline is missed, the accounts remain outstanding until they are filed.
Yes, dormancy does not automatically exempt a company from filing accounts. If a dormant company has a filing obligation for a particular period and misses its deadline, those accounts are overdue. Some exemptions may apply depending on the company’s status, but this must be assessed case by case.
You should address the outstanding filing as soon as reasonably possible. The first step is to determine which accounting periods still need to be filed and confirm the correct reporting framework for each period. Once the accounts are prepared, they can be delivered to Companies House. If you are unsure where to start, an accountant can help you review the position.
Companies House may issue a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The amount depends on how late the accounts are and the circumstances of the company. A penalty does not replace the need to file; the outstanding accounts must still be delivered.
An accountant cannot guarantee the removal or reduction of a penalty. If a penalty seems incorrect, you may be able to make an appeal to Companies House, but this depends on the facts and the reasons for the delay. We can help you present a clear explanation, but the decision rests with Companies House.
This depends on the company’s accounting periods and financial activity. Typically, it includes bank statements, invoices, expenses, payroll records, any existing management information and details of any previous filings. For a dormant company, there may be very little to provide. We will advise on what we need after reviewing your specific circumstances.
No. Company accounts are filed with Companies House, while CT600 Corporation Tax Returns are submitted to HMRC where applicable. They are separate legal obligations. Fixing overdue Companies House accounts does not automatically mean your Corporation Tax requirements are satisfied. Both may need to be dealt with depending on your situation.
Yes. Micro Entity Accounts can assist companies in Hanham Bristol by reviewing their outstanding filing obligations, preparing the required accounts and submitting them to Companies House. We will also highlight any separate compliance matters, such as confirmation statements, so you have a clearer picture of what remains outstanding.
