He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail.

 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 Makes Company Accounts Overdue, and Why It Is Worth Acting On

Company accounts become overdue when the statutory deadline for delivering a set of annual accounts to Companies House has passed and those accounts have not yet been filed. The deadline itself is not the same for every company — it depends on the company’s accounting reference date, its filing history and its individual circumstances — so it is worth checking the position on the Companies House record rather than assuming a particular date applies. Once accounts fall behind, the filing obligation generally remains: the accounts still need to be prepared and delivered, and each outstanding accounting period usually has to be addressed in its own right. Dealing with overdue accounts reasonably promptly is sensible, because the longer they stay unfiled, the more the position may develop, and Companies House can impose late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. Directors in Montrose and elsewhere remain responsible for meeting filing obligations, and an overdue filing may sit alongside other matters — such as confirmation statements or Corporation Tax returns — that are handled separately. Professional Overdue Company Accounts Filing support can help bring the records, the accounts and the filings back into order.

─── 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 does it mean if company accounts are overdue?

It means the statutory filing deadline for a set of annual accounts has passed and those accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. Being overdue is a compliance position rather than a change in the company's status — a company is not automatically suspended or removed from the register simply because a filing is late. The accounts still need to be prepared under the correct reporting framework and delivered, and the sooner that happens the clearer the company's position becomes. Depending on the circumstances, there may also be a late-filing penalty to consider and other outstanding filings to check.

Do overdue company accounts still need to be filed with Companies House?

Yes — in most cases the requirement to prepare and deliver annual accounts remains even once the deadline has passed. Filing late, or not filing at all, does not remove that obligation, and the accounts should be brought up to date using the framework that applies to the company. If you are unsure whether micro-entity accounts, small company accounts or another form of statutory accounts are appropriate, our team can assist with Overdue Company Accounts Filing in Montrose and confirm what is required.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company may still have Companies House filing obligations, and if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, those accounts can be overdue. Dormant status does not automatically remove the requirement to file annual accounts, so it is worth checking the Companies House record and the company's filing history rather than assuming nothing is due.

Will Companies House charge a late-filing penalty for overdue accounts?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, although the penalty that applies depends on the company's circumstances and the relevant rules. Penalties are not optional, and paying one does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts — the filing obligation and the penalty are separate matters. Where a penalty has been issued, an appeal may be possible in certain circumstances, subject to the applicable Companies House rules; we can review your situation and explain the options.

What happens if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Each outstanding accounting period usually needs its own set of accounts prepared and delivered, so a company with several unfiled periods may need more than one set of accounts bringing up to date. Filing one period does not automatically clear the others. The work involved depends on the records available for each period, and we can review exactly what is outstanding before setting out the steps required.

Could overdue accounts put the company at risk of strike-off?

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 — but a company with overdue accounts is not automatically dissolved. If you have received a strike-off notice or a warning letter, the position needs careful handling, and filing the outstanding accounts is not guaranteed to stop or reverse that action. Where a company has already been dissolved, that generally requires separate restoration or legal advice rather than an ordinary overdue filing.

Can micro-entity accounts be used for an overdue filing?

Some companies qualify for the micro-entity framework, which uses FRS 105 as its financial reporting standard, but not every small or overdue company will be eligible. Eligibility depends on factors such as the company's size, legal structure and accounting period, and the correct framework should be confirmed before the accounts are prepared. If the company does qualify, micro-entity accounts may be an appropriate way to prepare the outstanding filing, subject to the relevant requirements.

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

Yes. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable — filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not automatically satisfy any outstanding HMRC obligations. A confirmation statement is also a separate filing made to Companies House, and it is not replaced by submitting annual accounts. If several matters are outstanding, we can help you identify what needs to be dealt with and in what order.
