 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

Company accounts become overdue when the statutory deadline for delivering them to Companies House has passed and the required accounts are still outstanding. That deadline is not the same for every company — it depends on factors such as the company’s accounting reference period, whether the accounts are a first set or a subsequent set, and the company’s individual circumstances. Once the deadline has passed, the accounts remain due, and making sure they are prepared and delivered is the responsibility of the company’s directors. For directors in Stotfold, as elsewhere in the UK, an overdue filing is usually best dealt with sooner rather than later. Where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty, and the longer accounts remain outstanding, the more serious the consequences can become, including an increased risk of further compliance action. Overdue accounts do not resolve themselves because the company is dormant, has not traded or has received no income — dormant companies can still have annual accounts filing obligations. Bringing a period up to date generally involves preparing the statutory accounts, checking the company’s records and delivering the accounts to Companies House, and it may need to be handled alongside separate matters such as a confirmation statement or Corporation Tax filings with 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.

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.

What does it mean when company accounts are overdue?

Accounts are overdue when the deadline for delivering them to Companies House has passed and the required accounts have not yet been filed. That deadline is not identical for every company; it depends on the accounting reference period and the company's circumstances, including whether it is filing its first set of accounts. Being overdue is about the filing deadline having passed — it is not determined by whether the company traded, made a profit or had any income during the period.

Why have my company's accounts become overdue?

There are many reasons: records may be incomplete, a director may have assumed nothing was due because the company was quiet, a change of accountant may have interrupted the process, or correspondence from Companies House may have been missed. None of these change the underlying filing obligation. Once the deadline has passed, the accounts still need to be prepared and delivered, and the sooner that is done the more straightforward the position usually becomes.

Do dormant companies still have annual accounts filing obligations?

In many cases, yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues, and a dormant company can have accounts that are overdue because the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline. A dormant company may have limited or no transactions, but that does not automatically remove its Companies House filing obligations. The exact position depends on the company's circumstances and its filing history.

What happens if the accounts are delivered after the deadline?

Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and that penalty is separate from the requirement to file. The longer accounts remain outstanding, the more serious the consequences may become, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of action against the company, including strike-off action in some cases. Delivering the accounts does not guarantee that any penalty will be withdrawn, and other matters — such as a confirmation statement, Corporation Tax returns or other HMRC obligations — may need to be dealt with separately.

If a late-filing penalty is paid, is the company still required to file the accounts?

Yes. Paying a penalty does not remove the underlying requirement to prepare and deliver the outstanding accounts to Companies House. The two matters are distinct: the penalty relates to the missed deadline, while the filing obligation remains until the accounts have been delivered. In some circumstances a penalty appeal may be possible, but eligibility depends on the applicable Companies House rules and the reasons for the delay, and no outcome can be guaranteed.

What happens if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where several periods are outstanding, each one may need to be addressed separately, with its own set of statutory accounts prepared and filed. It is often sensible to work through them in chronological order, since later accounts frequently rely on information recorded in earlier periods. Filing one set does not automatically resolve the others, so reviewing the full filing history to establish exactly what is outstanding is usually the first practical step.

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

Possibly, but not automatically. Some companies that have fallen behind may qualify for the micro-entity framework and its reporting standard, FRS 105, while others may need small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts. Eligibility depends on the company's legal structure, accounting period, size and circumstances, and it should be confirmed before the accounts are prepared rather than assumed simply because the business is small.

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

Micro Entity Accounts works with company directors and other eligible entities that need to bring outstanding accounts up to date. We can review your filing position, establish which periods remain outstanding, prepare the statutory accounts using the framework that applies to your company, and assist with delivering them to Companies House where required. We will also flag related matters — such as a confirmation statement or a CT600 Corporation Tax Return due to HMRC — so nothing is overlooked, and we will explain each step in plain English before documents are submitted for your review and authorisation.
