Overdue accounts catch-up for Motherwell companies

When accounts stay overdue, Companies House adds penalties, can start the process of striking the company off the register and, in serious cases, can prosecute directors. HMRC works separately: if you ignore a notice to file a Corporation Tax return it can charge tax-geared penalties and estimate the tax you owe.

What is included

  • A review of what is missing and the order to file it
  • Records rebuilt from bank statements where needed
  • Every overdue set of accounts and returns filed
  • Support dealing with penalty notices and payment plans

Overdue company accounts for Motherwell businesses: local facts

Motherwell is in the North Lanarkshire council area, in Scotland. North Lanarkshire has around 7,910 VAT- and PAYE-registered businesses, and 6,940 of them, about 88%, have fewer than ten employees (ONS UK Business Counts, 2026). That is the group the micro-entity rules were written for.

The largest groups of micro businesses in North Lanarkshire are construction (1,460), wholesale and retail (1,170) and professional, scientific and technical services (770). For construction companies in Motherwell, Construction Industry Scheme deductions, retentions and stage payments can distort profit, so we reconcile your CIS statements before the accounts are prepared. That puts construction at 21% of the local micro-business base.

North Lanarkshire ranks 523 of the 1105 areas we serve by number of micro businesses, and its micro share of 88% is in line with the 89% average across them. In wholesale and retail (1,170 micro businesses in North Lanarkshire), closing stock and the VAT treatment of different product lines are the usual pressure points, so we value stock carefully and check your VAT records. In professional, scientific and technical services (770 micro businesses in North Lanarkshire), fee income, work in progress at the year end and how directors are paid are the key decisions, so we plan these with you before the accounts are finalised.

Scottish companies are registered with Companies House in the same way as English ones and the filing deadlines are identical. Scottish income tax bands apply to salary, but dividends and Corporation Tax follow UK rules.
