 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 generally has to prepare statutory accounts for its accounting reference period and deliver them to Companies House by the applicable filing deadline. That deadline is not the same for every company — it depends on factors such as the accounting reference date, whether it is the company’s first set of accounts, and the company’s individual circumstances. When the relevant deadline passes and the required accounts have not been delivered, those accounts are treated as overdue, whether or not the company has been actively trading. Directors across West Bromwich sometimes assume nothing needs to be done when the business is quiet, dormant or has generated no income in the period. That assumption can be costly. A dormant company can still have annual accounts filing obligations, and dormancy does not by itself remove the requirement to deliver accounts. Nor does a company become overdue simply because it has not traded — the filing deadline and whether the accounts have actually reached Companies House are the points that matter. Outstanding accounts are usually better dealt with promptly. The longer they remain unfiled, the more serious the position can become, and Companies House may take action against companies that fail to meet their filing obligations. Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period normally needs to be prepared and filed separately, and filing one set of accounts does not automatically clear the others. The exact requirements, and any consequences that may follow, depend on the company’s structure, its accounting periods and its particular circumstances.

─── 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.

Are Your Company Accounts Overdue? Let's Bring the Filing Back Up to Date

─── 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 exactly are overdue company accounts?

Company accounts become overdue once the applicable statutory filing deadline has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. The deadline is based on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances, so it is not the same date for every company. If you are unsure where your company stands, checking the Companies House filing history is normally a sensible first step.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have annual accounts filing obligations, and it can fall behind if those accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline. Having no income or no activity in the period does not by itself remove the requirement to file, so it is worth confirming what remains outstanding on the Companies House record.

What happens if company accounts are filed after the deadline?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty that may apply varies depending on how late the accounts are and whether the company has filed late previously, and it is dealt with separately from the accounts themselves. Filing the outstanding accounts does not remove any penalty already incurred. In some cases a penalty can be appealed, but eligibility depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules.

If a late-filing penalty is paid, do the accounts still need to be filed?

Yes. These are two separate matters. Paying a penalty does not bring the filing up to date and does not mean the company has met its obligations for that accounting period. The statutory accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required, even if a penalty has already been settled or is being queried.

What happens when more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Each outstanding period generally has to be prepared and filed separately, so a company that has fallen behind over several years may need several sets of statutory accounts. Filing one set does not automatically resolve the others. The work involved depends on the periods concerned, the records available and the reporting framework that applies to each one, so a review of the company's filing position is usually the starting point.

Can accounts still be filed after a strike-off notice has been issued?

It depends on the circumstances. Companies House may take action against companies that fail to meet their filing obligations, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of compulsory strike-off action. Where a strike-off notice has already been issued, or the company has been dissolved, the position may require separate advice, and possibly restoration, rather than being treated as a routine overdue accounts filing. It is best to seek advice promptly.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns separate from the accounts filed at Companies House?

Yes, they are separate compliance matters. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while a Corporation Tax Return such as a CT600 is submitted to HMRC where applicable. Sending overdue accounts to Companies House does not automatically satisfy HMRC's requirements, and any overdue Corporation Tax Returns may need to be addressed separately. A confirmation statement is a further distinct filing, so where several obligations are outstanding it helps to review the whole position.

How can Micro Entity Accounts help with Overdue Company Accounts Filing in West Bromwich?

We help company directors bring outstanding accounts up to date. That includes reviewing the company's filing position, identifying which accounting periods remain unfiled, preparing the statutory accounts on the correct basis, and assisting with delivery to Companies House. Where eligibility is unclear, we can consider whether micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, small-company accounts or another applicable framework is appropriate, and we can discuss HMRC or other outstanding compliance matters with you separately.
