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.

 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 Neston Directors Should Act on Them

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable statutory filing deadline has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. The deadline itself is not the same for every company — it depends on factors such as the company’s accounting reference period, whether it is a first set of accounts, and the company’s own circumstances. Once that date passes with nothing filed, the accounts are treated as outstanding, and the longer they remain so, the more difficult the position can become. Overdue accounts still need to be prepared and delivered where the company is required to file, and this applies whether the company traded during the period or was dormant. Alongside the accounts themselves, there may be separate matters to address, such as confirmation statements, Corporation Tax Returns submitted to HMRC, or information that needs updating on the Companies House register. Because each company’s position is different, the right approach is to review the outstanding periods, the records available and the reporting framework that applies before anything is submitted. Directors in Neston who are unsure where they stand can have their circumstances reviewed before deciding on next steps.

─── 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 when company accounts are overdue?

It means the applicable filing deadline for a set of statutory accounts has passed and those accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. It does not mean the requirement has disappeared. The accounts generally still need to be prepared and filed, and the company's filing position can usually be brought up to date with the right support. The deadline that applied depends on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances rather than a single date applied to every company.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are two separate issues. A dormant company may still have annual accounts filing obligations at Companies House, and if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, those accounts are overdue regardless of the fact that the company was not trading. Dormant status does not automatically remove the need to file, so it is worth checking exactly what remains outstanding before assuming nothing is required.

Will Companies House impose a late-filing penalty?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty that may apply depends on the circumstances and the length of the delay, and it is separate from the obligation to file the outstanding accounts. Paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to prepare and deliver the accounts. There is no guarantee that a penalty will not be issued, and no accountant can promise to reduce, cancel or remove one automatically.

If I pay the penalty, do I still need to file the accounts?

Yes. The penalty and the filing obligation are separate matters. Settling a late-filing penalty does not satisfy the requirement to prepare and deliver the statutory accounts to Companies House, and the outstanding accounts would still remain outstanding. The accounts need to be prepared in the applicable reporting framework and filed where required, quite apart from anything owed in penalties.

What happens if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where several accounting periods are outstanding, each one may need to be addressed separately. That usually means preparing more than one set of accounts, working through the periods in the right order and checking that the underlying records support each one. Filing a single set of accounts does not automatically resolve the other outstanding periods, so it is sensible to review the full position first and set out a clear order of work.

Can micro-entity accounts be used where the company qualifies?

Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, which is set out in FRS 105, but eligibility is not automatic simply because a business is small. The company's legal structure, accounting period, size and circumstances all need to be considered before deciding which framework applies. A company with overdue accounts may originally have been required to prepare micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts, so the correct basis should be confirmed before preparation begins.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns separate from Companies House accounts?

Yes. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as the CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable. Delivering overdue accounts to Companies House does not automatically satisfy any Corporation Tax obligations the company may have. If both sets of filings are outstanding, they are separate compliance matters and each needs to be dealt with on its own terms. A confirmation statement is also separate again and is submitted to Companies House rather than being part of the annual accounts.

How can Micro Entity Accounts help with Overdue Company Accounts Filing in Neston?

We can review your company's filing position, identify which accounting periods remain outstanding and confirm the reporting framework that applies. From there, we prepare the accounts using the records available, explain clearly what information is needed, and assist with delivering the documents to Companies House. Where the company also has HMRC matters, confirmation statements or other outstanding filings, we can point these out so they are not overlooked. If you have already received correspondence from Companies House about your filing obligations, it is worth having the position reviewed promptly.
