 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 Acting Early

Company accounts become overdue when the statutory deadline for delivering them has passed and the accounts have not yet reached Companies House. That deadline is not the same for every company: it is worked out from the company’s accounting reference date, the length and end date of the accounting period, and the circumstances of the company itself. So the first practical step is usually to confirm which period or periods remain outstanding and what was actually delivered, rather than assuming a particular date applies. Once a deadline has passed, the filing obligation does not disappear because the company has stopped trading, has no income for the period, or is dormant. A dormant company can still have overdue accounts where the required accounts were not filed on time, and dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. Equally, this is not a question of company status being automatically suspended or removed — it simply means the relevant filing deadline has passed and the accounts remain outstanding. Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and it may take action against companies that repeatedly fail to meet their filing obligations. Penalties and filing requirements are separate matters, and paying a penalty does not remove the need to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts. Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period generally has to be prepared, reviewed and filed separately, and resolving one set of accounts does not automatically clear the others. For directors in Roundhay, the position is usually easier to manage when it is addressed early. The longer accounts stay outstanding, the more likely it is that correspondence, reminders and additional compliance issues accumulate around them — for example an outstanding confirmation statement, or Corporation Tax obligations that need to be dealt with separately through HMRC. The appropriate form of accounts depends on the company’s legal structure, accounting period, size and reporting framework. Some companies may have originally been required to prepare micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, others small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts, and eligibility for the micro-entity framework has to be considered rather than assumed.

─── 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.

Worried About Overdue Company Accounts in Roundhay? Let Us Prepare and File Them Properly With Companies House

Overdue accounts are rarely about the numbers alone — there is usually some uncertainty about what was filed, what is still missing and whether anything else needs to be dealt with alongside it. Micro Entity Accounts works with company directors in Roundhay to review outstanding filing requirements, prepare overdue statutory accounts for the periods that remain open, and assist with the Companies House filing that follows. Where relevant, we can also look at separate matters such as confirmation statements or Corporation Tax correspondence, so you can see the full picture before anything is submitted. Tell us where things stand and we will explain the practical next steps.

─── 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?

Overdue company accounts simply means that the filing deadline for a set of statutory accounts has passed and those accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. It does not mean the company has automatically been dissolved or removed from the register, and it does not mean the requirement has gone away. The accounts remain outstanding until they are prepared, reviewed and filed. The deadline itself depends on the company's accounting reference date, its accounting period and its circumstances, so it is worth confirming exactly which period is outstanding before assuming anything about the position.

Why do company accounts end up overdue in the first place?

There is rarely a single reason. Common situations include a change of accountant part-way through a period, gaps in bookkeeping records, a director who was unwell or distracted by other commitments, a business that stopped trading and was assumed to need no further filings, or simply a missed reminder. In many cases the deadline was calculated from the accounting reference date rather than the date the director had in mind. Whatever the cause, the practical position is the same: the period has to be prepared and filed, so the sooner the records are gathered the easier the work tends to be.

Do I still have to file accounts that are already overdue?

Yes, in almost all cases. Where accounts are required to be delivered to Companies House, the obligation continues after the deadline has passed, and the accounts still need to be prepared and filed. Stopping trading, having no income in the period or being dormant does not remove the requirement. Filing late accounts resolves the outstanding filing itself, but it does not automatically cancel any late-filing penalty that may have been incurred, and it does not clear other obligations such as an outstanding confirmation statement or separate HMRC matters. Those are dealt with individually, depending on the circumstances.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. If a dormant company was required to file accounts for a period and did not deliver them by the applicable deadline, those accounts are overdue — the fact that the company was not trading does not exempt it from the filing obligation. Dormant company accounts are usually simpler to prepare, but they still need to be produced and submitted where required, and any penalty position needs to be considered separately.

Will Companies House impose a late-filing penalty, and does paying it mean I no longer have to file?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and the penalty position depends on the circumstances rather than being identical in every case. Paying a penalty does not remove or replace the requirement to file the outstanding accounts — the penalty and the filing obligation are separate matters. If you believe there are grounds to appeal a penalty, eligibility depends on the specific circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and we can review the position with you before anything is submitted.

What happens if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where a company has several periods outstanding, each set of accounts generally needs to be prepared, reviewed and filed separately. Filing one period does not automatically resolve the others. In practice this means reconstructing the records for each period in turn, checking what has already been delivered to Companies House, and working through the periods in a sensible order. The amount of work involved depends on the quality of the records available and the number of periods involved, so we usually start with a review of the position before confirming the approach.

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

Some companies with overdue accounts may qualify to prepare micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, which is the financial reporting standard applicable to qualifying entities using the micro-entity accounting framework. However, eligibility depends on the company's legal structure, accounting period, size and circumstances, and qualifying status is not automatic just because a business is small. Other companies may have been required to prepare small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts. We assess the appropriate reporting framework for each period before preparing anything.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements dealt with at the same time as overdue accounts?

Not automatically — 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. Submitting overdue accounts to Companies House does not satisfy a company's Corporation Tax obligations, and a confirmation statement is a separate filing again, submitted to Companies House and unrelated to the annual accounts. Where a company has overdue accounts alongside outstanding Corporation Tax filings or a confirmation statement, each item needs to be addressed in its own right, and Micro Entity Accounts can help you work out what is outstanding and in which order to deal with it.
