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 It Mean When Company Accounts Are Overdue?

Company accounts generally need to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. When that deadline passes without the required accounts being sent, the accounts are considered overdue. Even if a company has stopped trading, is dormant, or has no current income, there may still be an obligation to file annual accounts. The exact deadline and the type of accounts required depend on the company’s accounting reference period, size, and circumstances. Addressing overdue accounts promptly is important because the longer they remain outstanding, the more serious the potential consequences may become. Micro Entity Accounts can review your situation and help you meet your Companies House filing requirements.

─── 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 counts as overdue company accounts?

Overdue company accounts are statutory annual accounts that have not been delivered to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. This can happen when a company has missed its accounts filing deadline for one or more accounting periods. The specific due date depends on the company's accounting reference date and other circumstances, so it is always worth checking the exact deadline for your company.

Do I still need to file my company accounts if the deadline has passed?

Yes. The legal obligation to deliver accounts to Companies House does not disappear simply because the deadline has passed. Once accounts are overdue, they still need to be prepared and filed, although the company may also face a late-filing penalty. Each outstanding accounting period normally needs to be dealt with separately, and an accountant can assist in bringing your filings up to date.

Can a dormant company have overdue company accounts?

Yes. A dormant company may be required to file annual accounts even if it has had no significant accounting transactions during the period. Dormancy does not automatically remove the filing obligation, and failing to deliver accounts by the relevant deadline can result in the accounts becoming overdue. Whether filing is required depends on the type of company and its circumstances.

What are the potential consequences of filing company accounts late?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The amount of any penalty depends on how late the accounts are and other circumstances. It is important to note that paying a penalty does not remove the need to file the outstanding accounts. In addition, persistent non-compliance with filing obligations can increase the risk of further regulatory action.

I have more than one year of overdue accounts. Can you help me file each one?

Yes. If your company has multiple outstanding accounting periods, each set of accounts must usually be prepared and filed separately. The information needed for each period will vary, but our team can help you work through each year in turn, making sure the relevant reports are prepared according to the applicable accounting framework.

Will overdue accounts affect my company's status at Companies House?

Overdue accounts mean the company has failed to meet its filing obligation for that period. This can result in late-filing penalties and, if the company repeatedly fails to file, Companies House may consider taking action. However, simply having overdue accounts does not automatically dissolve or remove the company from the register. If you are worried about your company's status, we recommend seeking advice as soon as possible.

What information do I need to provide for overdue account preparation?

To prepare overdue accounts, an accountant may need access to the company's financial records, such as bank statements, invoices, expense records, previous accounts and details of any loans or director transactions. The exact documents will depend on the accounting period and the complexity of the company's affairs. We can let you know exactly what is required after reviewing your circumstances.

Does filing overdue accounts sort out my other company filing obligations?

Filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically satisfy your other obligations, such as submitting a confirmation statement or paying any Corporation Tax due. Corporation Tax returns are sent to HMRC, while statutory accounts are filed with Companies House. If you also owe HMRC documents, these are separate matters and may need to be addressed individually.
