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 It Matters

A limited company is generally required to prepare annual accounts and deliver them to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline, which is calculated by reference to the company’s accounting reference date and its individual circumstances. When that deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered, those accounts are treated as overdue — the obligation itself does not disappear simply because time has moved on. Outstanding accounts can arise for many reasons: a first set of accounts was never prepared, bookkeeping fell behind, a director was unwell, a company changed accountant partway through the year, or a dormant company assumed there was nothing to file. In each case the position needs to be looked at properly rather than left to sit. The longer accounts remain outstanding, the more the matter can grow — additional accounting periods may fall due, Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty, and the company’s filing record becomes increasingly out of step with its actual position. It is also worth being clear that this is separate from other compliance tasks: statutory accounts go to Companies House where required, Corporation Tax Returns such as the CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable, and a confirmation statement is a distinct filing in its own right. Bringing overdue accounts up to date is usually a case of reconstructing the figures for each affected period, preparing the accounts under the correct reporting framework, having the director review and approve them, and then delivering them. The right approach depends on the company’s size, legal structure, accounting period and reporting framework, so we review each set of circumstances before deciding how to proceed.

─── 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 for company accounts to be overdue?

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable filing deadline for a set of statutory accounts has passed and those accounts have still not been delivered to Companies House. The deadline is not identical for every company — it depends on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances. Being overdue is a filing position rather than a separate legal status: the requirement to prepare and deliver the accounts remains in place until it is met.

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, even though the original deadline has passed. The passage of the deadline does not remove the underlying obligation. If more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period generally needs to be prepared and filed separately, as filing one set of accounts does not automatically resolve the others.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

It can. Dormancy and overdue filing are two different things. A dormant company may still have annual accounts filing obligations and, if it did not deliver the required accounts by the applicable deadline, those accounts can be overdue. Dormant status is not a reason to assume that no filing is required, and we can review what applies to your company's circumstances before anything is submitted.

What happens if accounts are filed late?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. Penalty levels are not identical in every case and depend on the circumstances, including how late the filing is for the period in question. A penalty and the obligation to file are separate matters — paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts.

If I pay a late-filing penalty, does that mean the accounts no longer need to be filed?

No. Settling a penalty does not discharge the filing obligation. The accounts still need to be prepared, approved by the director and delivered to Companies House. Where a penalty has been issued, whether an appeal may be possible depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and we can talk through the position with you rather than assume an outcome either way.

Can overdue accounts affect the company's status or lead to strike-off action?

An overdue filing does not automatically mean a company is suspended or removed from the register. However, Companies House may take action against companies that repeatedly fail to meet their filing obligations, and continued non-compliance can increase the risk of compulsory strike-off action. If your company has already received a strike-off notice or has been dissolved, that situation may need separate advice, so please raise it with us at the outset so we can point you in the right direction.

What information is needed to prepare overdue accounts?

It depends on the period being prepared and how the company has been run. Typically we would look for bookkeeping records, bank statements, sales invoices and expense records covering the relevant accounting period, together with company details, previous accounts if any, and information about the company's activities. For older periods the records may need to be reconstructed, and we can discuss what is realistically available before deciding how to proceed.

Are micro-entity accounts an option for overdue filings?

Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, which uses FRS 105, but not every company does. Whether micro-entity accounts are appropriate depends on the company's legal structure, accounting period and eligibility, and the overdue accounts may originally have needed to be prepared under a different framework such as small-company accounts. There is no automatic assumption that a small or dormant company's overdue accounts should be prepared as micro-entity accounts.

Are Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements dealt with separately?

They are separate obligations. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as the CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable. A confirmation statement is a further Companies House filing in its own right and is not replaced by filing overdue accounts. Submitting outstanding accounts does not automatically settle Corporation Tax or confirmation statement requirements, so we can review the wider compliance position alongside the accounts.

How can Micro Entity Accounts help with overdue company accounts?

We prepare outstanding statutory accounts, review what is missing from the Companies House filing record, and assist with delivering the required documents. Our accountants are fully qualified and regulated by ICAEW, ACCA and AAT, and we keep the process clear and unhurried — explaining what each period requires, confirming the figures with you before submission, and handling the filing itself. Pricing is set on a simple fixed-fee basis with no hidden costs.
