 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 Matters

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable statutory filing deadline passes and the required accounts have still not been delivered to Companies House. That deadline is not identical 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 particular circumstances — so directors should check the specific dates recorded for their own company rather than assume a standard timescale applies. Once the deadline has passed, the filing obligation does not lapse. Leaving accounts outstanding because the company has not traded, has no income, or is dormant does not remove the requirement to file, and dormant companies can have overdue accounts in exactly the same way as trading ones. The longer accounts remain undelivered, the more serious the position may become: Companies House can apply a late-filing penalty when accounts arrive after the deadline, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action, including compulsory strike-off action against the company. Any penalty is a separate matter from the requirement to file, and paying one does not remove the need to deliver the outstanding accounts. Where several accounting periods are outstanding, each set of accounts may need to be prepared and delivered separately, since filing one period does not automatically resolve the others. If a company has already received a strike-off notice, or has been dissolved, the situation may need separate restoration steps or legal advice rather than being treated as an ordinary late filing. For directors in Newquay dealing with this for the first time, the practical starting point is a review of what has been filed, what remains outstanding, and which reporting framework applies to each period.

─── 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 my company's accounts are overdue?

Accounts are overdue when the applicable statutory deadline for delivering them to Companies House has passed and the accounts have still not been filed. Common reasons include a change of accountant, incomplete bookkeeping records, correspondence being sent to an old registered address, or an assumption that nothing needed to be filed because the company was quiet. Whatever the reason, the requirement to file remains until the accounts are prepared and delivered, and the position does not resolve itself simply by waiting.

Do dormant companies still have to deal with overdue accounts?

Yes, in most cases they do. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues: a company can be dormant and still have accounts that are outstanding because they were not delivered by the relevant deadline. Filing obligations do not disappear simply because a company has not traded or has no income. Depending on the circumstances, a dormant company may be able to file a simpler form of accounts, but eligibility needs to be checked and the outstanding periods still have to be addressed.

What happens if the accounts are filed late with Companies House?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and the penalty scale is set out in its published rules rather than being decided case by case. The requirement to file the accounts continues regardless of any penalty, and an accountant cannot automatically reduce, cancel or remove a Companies House penalty. Where an appeal is considered, eligibility depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules.

If we pay the late-filing penalty, does that mean we no longer need to file the accounts?

No. The penalty and the filing obligation are separate matters. Paying a late-filing penalty does not satisfy the requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts, and the accounts will still show as outstanding on the Companies House record until they are actually filed. Both matters generally need to be dealt with, and the penalty is not optional where Companies House has applied one under its rules.

What if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where several periods are outstanding, each one may need its own set of accounts prepared and delivered, because filing a single period does not automatically clear the others. We can review the full filing history, work out which accounting periods remain open, and prepare them in a sensible order. How long this takes depends on the state of the records for each period, and we will not commit to a fixed completion date before reviewing what is involved.

Can overdue accounts be filed using the micro-entity framework where the company qualifies?

Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework and, where they do, FRS 105 is the financial reporting standard that applies to those accounts. It is not automatic, and a company is not treated as a micro-entity simply because it is small or was originally expected to file that way. Eligibility depends on the company's legal structure, accounting period and the qualifying criteria, so the appropriate framework should be confirmed before any overdue accounts are prepared.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns separate from Companies House accounts filing?

Yes, they are separate compliance matters. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while a CT600 Corporation Tax Return is submitted to HMRC where applicable. Filing overdue accounts with Companies House does not satisfy any outstanding Corporation Tax obligation, and a confirmation statement is also a separate filing in its own right. Where more than one of these is outstanding, each needs to be dealt with on its own terms.

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

We review what has been filed and what remains outstanding, prepare the required statutory accounts for each affected accounting period, and handle the Companies House filing on your behalf once you have reviewed and authorised the documents. Our accountants are fully qualified and regulated by ICAEW, ACCA and AAT, and we keep our pricing clear and fixed-fee where possible. We can also point out any related matters that may need attention, such as Corporation Tax returns, confirmation statements or Companies House record updates.
