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.

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 It Pays to Deal With Them Early

Company accounts become overdue when the filing deadline that applies to a particular accounting period has passed and the required statutory accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. That deadline is not identical for every company: it depends on the accounting reference period, whether the accounts are a first set for a newly incorporated company, and the company’s own reporting circumstances, so a director in West Wycombe cannot safely assume that the date they remember is the one that actually applies. Once the deadline has passed, the accounts remain an outstanding filing obligation on the company’s Companies House record until they are properly prepared and delivered. Acting reasonably early is usually the sensible approach, because the position can compound — a further accounting period may have fallen due, a confirmation statement may have been missed, or Companies House may already have written to the company. Companies House can impose late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and those penalties are assessed according to the applicable rules rather than being optional or negotiable simply because a filing is eventually made; paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file the accounts themselves. Persistent non-compliance can also increase the risk of Companies House taking action against a company, including compulsory strike-off in some circumstances, although that is not automatic and depends on the individual case. What is actually needed to put things right varies from company to company. Some companies may have originally been required to prepare micro-entity accounts under FRS 105 where they qualified, others may need small-company accounts, and a dormant company can still have an annual accounts filing obligation even where it has not traded. The appropriate reporting framework, the number of periods involved and the quality of the available records all need to be considered before anything is prepared.

─── 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.

Accounts are overdue when the statutory filing deadline for a particular accounting period has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. The deadline varies depending on the accounting reference period and the company's circumstances, so the first step is usually to check the company's Companies House record and confirm which periods remain outstanding. Until those accounts are prepared and filed, the filing obligation continues.

Yes. An overdue filing means the deadline has passed and the accounts remain outstanding — it does not remove the obligation to prepare and deliver them to Companies House where statutory accounts are required. You should also be aware that any late-filing penalty and the requirement to file are separate matters: dealing with one does not resolve the other.

It can. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues, and a dormant company may still have annual accounts filing obligations to Companies House. If a dormant company failed to file the required accounts by the applicable deadline, those accounts would be overdue, subject to the relevant requirements. Dormant status does not automatically exempt a company from filing.

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and the position can become more serious the longer the accounts remain outstanding. Penalties are not optional, and their treatment depends on the applicable Companies House rules and the circumstances of the case. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically cancel or reduce any penalty that has already been applied.

Yes. Paying a penalty does not discharge the underlying filing obligation, so the outstanding accounts must still be prepared and delivered to Companies House. Where a penalty appeal is being considered, eligibility depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and there is no guarantee that an appeal will sì³®d.

Where a company has fallen behind, several sets of accounts may need to be prepared and filed, and each outstanding accounting period generally has to be addressed separately. Filing one period does not automatically resolve the others. We can review the company's filing history, establish which periods remain outstanding and work through them in a sensible order.

They are separate compliance matters. Statutory accounts are filed with Companies House where required, while Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted to HMRC where applicable, and a confirmation statement is a Companies House filing in its own right. Delivering overdue accounts to Companies House does not automatically satisfy HMRC obligations or replace a confirmation statement, so all outstanding filings may need to be reviewed together.

We can review your company's position, confirm which accounting periods remain outstanding and prepare the overdue statutory accounts for the reporting framework that applies — whether that is micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, small-company accounts or another applicable form. We then assist with delivery to Companies House once you have reviewed and authorised the accounts. Where the company has already received a strike-off notice or has been dissolved, the matter may require separate restoration or legal advice rather than an ordinary overdue filing, and we can talk you through that.
