 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 Sorting Out Early

Company accounts generally have to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline, which is set by reference to the company’s accounting reference period and its own circumstances. Once that deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered, the accounts are overdue — whether or not the company has been trading, and whether or not the director believes there is anything significant to report. Overdue Company Accounts Filing in North Somerset therefore starts with establishing exactly which accounting periods remain outstanding and what was originally required for each one. Some companies may have been due to prepare micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, the financial reporting standard that applies to qualifying entities using the micro-entity framework; others may fall under a small-company regime or another form of statutory accounts. Dormant companies can also have outstanding annual accounts obligations. These categories are not interchangeable, and the correct basis depends on the company’s legal structure, size, accounting period and reporting framework, so eligibility should be checked rather than assumed. Dealing with outstanding accounts reasonably promptly is usually the more straightforward route. Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the deadline, and while some directors hope the matter will quietly resolve itself, the position tends to become more involved the longer it is left. Persistent failure to meet filing obligations can also increase the risk of further action in relation to the company, although this is not automatic and depends on the circumstances. It is important to separate the two issues: filing the overdue accounts does not by itself cancel a penalty that has already been incurred, and paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file. Directors in North Somerset may also have related matters to deal with, such as confirmation statements for Companies House and any Corporation Tax Returns due to HMRC, because these are distinct obligations and are not resolved simply by submitting statutory accounts.

─── 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 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. The deadline is not the same for every company; it depends on factors such as the company's accounting reference period and its individual circumstances. Being overdue is about the filing position rather than the company's trading activity, so a company that has been quiet or inactive can still have overdue accounts.

Do overdue company accounts still need to be filed?

Yes, in most cases the accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where a filing obligation applies. The fact that the deadline has passed does not remove the requirement. Where a company has more than one outstanding accounting period, each period may need to be addressed separately, and filing one set of accounts does not automatically resolve the others.

Can a dormant company have overdue company accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have annual accounts filing obligations at Companies House, and if it did not deliver the required accounts by the applicable deadline, those accounts become overdue. Dormant status does not automatically exempt a company from filing, although the accounts that are required may take a different form depending on the company's circumstances.

What happens if company accounts are filed late?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty depends on the circumstances and the period of delay, so the amount is not the same for every company. Filing the accounts and dealing with any penalty are separate matters — delivering the outstanding accounts does not automatically cancel a penalty, and paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file. Where a company has several periods outstanding, the position can become more serious the longer it is left unaddressed.

Can a company still file overdue accounts after receiving a Companies House warning or strike-off notice?

It may be possible to file outstanding accounts in that situation, but the position needs to be looked at carefully and on its own facts. A strike-off notice raises issues beyond a straightforward overdue filing, and filing accounts may not necessarily stop or reverse action that has already begun. Where a company has received a warning or has already been dissolved, we would usually recommend separate advice, as the matter may involve restoration or other legal steps rather than an ordinary overdue accounts filing.

What information is needed to prepare several sets of overdue accounts?

It depends on the company and the accounting periods involved. In general terms, we would look at bookkeeping records, bank statements, invoices, expense records, previous accounts, company details and other financial information covering each outstanding period. Not every company will need to provide exactly the same documents, and where records are incomplete we can discuss what is available and how best to proceed before anything is prepared for submission to Companies House.

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

Some companies with overdue accounts may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, which uses FRS 105. However, not every small company qualifies, and eligibility is not automatic simply because a business is small or has low activity. The appropriate reporting framework — micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts — must be considered in light of the company's legal structure, accounting period and circumstances.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements separate from overdue company accounts?

Yes. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House, while a CT600 Corporation Tax Return is submitted to HMRC where applicable. A confirmation statement is also a separate Companies House filing. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy outstanding Corporation Tax obligations or replace a confirmation statement, so companies may need to deal with more than one compliance matter at the same time. Where relevant, we can review what else remains outstanding and assist accordingly.
