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 Overdue Company Accounts Mean and Why They Should Be Dealt With Promptly

Company accounts normally have to be delivered to Companies House by the statutory deadline that applies to the company. That deadline is not the same for every business — it depends on factors such as the company’s accounting reference period, its filing history and its particular circumstances. When the relevant deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered, those accounts become overdue. An overdue filing does not mean the obligation disappears. The accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required, and dealing with them sooner rather than later is usually the sensible approach, because the longer accounts remain outstanding the more the position can escalate. Companies House can apply a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the deadline, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action being taken against the company. It is also worth remembering that an overdue accounts filing is rarely the only compliance matter in play. Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted to HMRC, not Companies House, and a confirmation statement is a separate filing again. Dormant companies are not automatically exempt either: dormancy and overdue filing are different issues, and a dormant company can still have overdue accounts if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline. If you are a director in Newton Abbott dealing with outstanding accounts, we can review the position, confirm which periods remain outstanding and prepare the appropriate statutory accounts — whether that is micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, small-company accounts or another applicable framework, depending on the company’s eligibility.

─── 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 filing deadline that applied to your company's accounts has passed and the accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. The deadline itself varies — it depends on the company's accounting reference period and its own circumstances — so it is worth checking the company's records and Companies House filing history rather than assuming a standard date applies. Once that date has passed without the accounts being filed, the accounts are treated as outstanding and remain so until they are properly prepared and delivered.

Do I still need to file company accounts that are already overdue?

Yes. The passing of a deadline does not remove the filing obligation. Overdue statutory accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required. Depending on the circumstances, they may be prepared as micro-entity accounts if the company qualifies, as small-company accounts, or under another applicable reporting framework. Eligibility depends on the company's size, legal structure and accounting period, so the correct basis should be confirmed before preparation begins.

Can a dormant company have overdue company accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have Companies House filing obligations, and if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, those accounts are overdue regardless of whether the company has traded. Dormant status does not automatically exempt a company from filing, so the position should be reviewed for each company and accounting period.

What happens when accounts are filed late, and can Companies House impose a penalty?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The level of any penalty depends on how late the accounts are delivered and on the company's circumstances, and it is a separate consequence of late filing rather than something optional. Filing the accounts does not automatically remove or cancel a penalty that has already been incurred, although the penalty and the outstanding filing are dealt with as distinct matters.

If I pay the late-filing penalty, does that remove the requirement to file the accounts?

No. Paying a penalty and filing the accounts are two different obligations. Settling a late-filing penalty does not discharge the requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts to Companies House, and it does not mean the matter is closed. Both need to be addressed. Where a penalty has been incurred, whether an appeal or review is available depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, so it cannot be assumed in advance.

What if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where several periods are outstanding, each one generally needs to be prepared and filed in turn — filing one set of accounts does not automatically resolve the others. The order in which they are dealt with can matter, particularly where the figures for a later period depend on the position shown in the previous year. We can review the company's filing history, identify which accounting periods remain outstanding and explain what is needed for each of them.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements separate from the statutory accounts?

Yes. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable. A confirmation statement is separate again — it is filed with Companies House but is not a substitute for annual accounts. Submitting overdue accounts to Companies House does not automatically satisfy any Corporation Tax obligations or confirmation statement requirements, so each matter may need to be dealt with separately.

How can Micro Entity Accounts help with overdue company accounts in Newton Abbott?

We can review the company's outstanding filing position, confirm which accounting periods still need to be prepared, and prepare the statutory accounts on the correct basis for the company. We then assist with filing those accounts at Companies House and explain clearly what else may remain outstanding, such as confirmation statements or HMRC matters. Directors in Newton Abbott can ask us to look at their circumstances before deciding how to proceed, with simple fixed-fee pricing and no hidden costs.
