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 Overdue Company Accounts Mean and Why They Should Be Addressed

Company accounts generally have to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline, which is based on the company’s accounting reference period and its individual circumstances. When that deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered, the accounts become overdue. This applies whether the company has been actively trading, has been quiet, or is dormant — dormancy does not automatically remove the annual accounts filing obligation. Leaving accounts outstanding does not make the requirement disappear, and in most cases the position becomes more complicated the longer it is left, particularly where several accounting periods have built up. Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the deadline, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action against the company. The right approach depends on the company’s legal structure, accounting period, size and reporting framework, so the first practical step is usually a review of exactly which periods are outstanding, what has already been filed, and what information is needed to prepare each set of accounts. Micro Entity Accounts can carry out that review for directors in Linwood and then prepare and file the outstanding statutory accounts where required.

─── 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.

Need Help Bringing Overdue Accounts Up to Date? We Can Review Your Filing Position and Prepare What Is Outstanding

Overdue accounts are a common problem, and the uncertainty around what has been filed and what still needs to be delivered often causes more worry than the filing itself. Micro Entity Accounts can review your outstanding filing requirements, prepare the overdue statutory accounts and assist with delivering them to Companies House, keeping you informed at each stage and making sure the figures are accurate and consistent with your company records. If you also have separate Companies House or HMRC matters to deal with, we can explain how those fit together. Get in touch with our team to discuss your company’s position and the next steps.

─── 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 does it mean if a company's accounts are overdue in Linwood?

It means the deadline for delivering the company's statutory accounts to Companies House has passed and the accounts have not yet been filed. The deadline itself depends on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances, so it is worth checking the company's filing history on the Companies House register to confirm exactly which periods remain outstanding.

Do overdue accounts still have to be filed?

In most cases, yes. The filing obligation does not disappear because the deadline has passed, and the accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required. Paying any late-filing penalty does not remove that requirement — the penalty and the outstanding filing are separate matters.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have an annual accounts filing obligation, and if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, the accounts can be overdue. Dormant status does not automatically mean the accounts are exempt.

What happens if accounts are filed late?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty depends on the circumstances and how late the filing is, and eligibility for an appeal against a penalty depends on the applicable Companies House rules. Filing the outstanding accounts and dealing with any penalty are two distinct steps.

If several accounting periods are outstanding, does one filing resolve everything?

Not usually. Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period may need its own set of accounts prepared and filed, so filing one period does not automatically clear the others. We can review the company's filing history to establish exactly which periods need attention and in what order.

Do overdue accounts affect the company's status or lead to strike-off?

Overdue accounts do not automatically change a company's status. However, Companies House may take action against companies that fail to meet their filing obligations, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of compulsory strike-off action. If a strike-off notice has already been issued, or the company has been dissolved, the position is different from a straightforward overdue filing and may require separate advice.

Are Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements dealt with at the same time?

They are separate compliance matters. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable. A confirmation statement is also separate from the annual accounts. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy those other obligations, so they may need to be addressed individually.

What information is needed to prepare overdue company accounts?

It depends on the company's circumstances and the accounting period being prepared. Typically we would look at bookkeeping records, bank statements, invoices, expense records, previous accounts and current company details, but the exact list varies from company to company. Some companies with overdue filings may qualify for the micro-entity framework under FRS 105, while others need small-company or another form of statutory accounts — eligibility has to be considered before the reporting framework is confirmed.
