I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. 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. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.

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.

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 Matter

Company accounts normally have to be delivered to Companies House by the statutory deadline that applies to the company’s accounting reference period. Once that date has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered, those accounts are treated as overdue. The deadline is not the same for every company: factors such as the length of the accounting period, whether it is a first period of account, and the company’s individual circumstances all affect when the accounts are due. Overdue accounts do not resolve themselves. Until the outstanding statutory accounts are prepared and delivered, the filing obligation remains in place, and the longer they stay outstanding, the more serious the position may become. Companies House can impose late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action being taken against the company. A dormant company can also have overdue accounts if its filing deadline passed without the required accounts being delivered, and where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period generally needs to be addressed separately. Bringing accounts up to date is also distinct from other obligations, such as confirmation statements and any Corporation Tax returns due to HMRC.

─── 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.

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.

Accounts become overdue when the statutory filing deadline for those accounts has passed and they have not yet been delivered to Companies House. The deadline depends on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances rather than a single date that applies to every company. If the required accounts remain undelivered after that date, the filing obligation is still outstanding and needs to be dealt with.

In most cases the obligation to deliver the accounts remains, even though the deadline has passed. Overdue statutory accounts generally still need to be prepared and filed where Companies House requires them. Dormancy, a lack of trading or no income during the period does not automatically remove the filing requirement. We can review which periods are outstanding and confirm what is needed for each one.

Yes, they can. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate matters. A company may meet the conditions for dormant accounts, but if the relevant accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, its Companies House record can show an outstanding filing. Depending on the circumstances, those accounts may still need to be prepared and delivered, so it is worth checking the position on the public register rather than assuming no action is required.

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The level of any penalty depends on factors such as how late the accounts are, so it is not a fixed outcome that applies in every case. Filing the accounts and dealing with any penalty are separate matters. Late filing can also affect how the company is viewed by lenders, investors and others who check the register.

No. Paying a late-filing penalty does not remove the requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts. The penalty and the filing obligation are separate matters, and the accounts still need to be filed where Companies House requires them. Whether a penalty can be appealed or reduced depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and no particular outcome can be guaranteed. We can explain the options once the position is clear.

Where several accounting periods are outstanding, each period usually needs its own set of accounts, and preparing one set does not automatically clear the others. It helps to map out every overdue period in order, oldest first, and confirm what financial information is available for each. Depending on the circumstances, some periods may have originally required micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts.

Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, but eligibility is not automatic simply because a business is small. The company's legal structure, accounting period, size and reporting framework all need to be considered. Where a company qualifies, micro-entity accounts prepared under FRS 105, the standard applicable to the micro-entity framework, may be appropriate for the periods being brought up to date. We confirm the correct basis for each period before anything is prepared.

Yes, they are separate filings. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while a CT600 Corporation Tax Return is submitted to HMRC where applicable, and a confirmation statement is a separate Companies House filing covering the company's officers, shareholders and registered details. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy Corporation Tax obligations or replace a confirmation statement, so it is worth reviewing the full compliance position.
