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.

 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 Best to Deal With Them Promptly

Company accounts generally need to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. That deadline is not the same for every company — it depends on factors such as the company’s accounting reference period and its particular circumstances — so the point at which accounts become overdue varies from one company to the next. Once the relevant deadline has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered, those accounts are treated as overdue. Directors in Whitehouse who find themselves in that position should aim to bring the position up to date rather than leave it to sit, because the longer accounts remain outstanding, the more the situation can develop, and late-filing penalties may apply where accounts are delivered after the deadline. There is no single template for resolving this: some companies have one outstanding period, others have several, and each period may need to be prepared and filed separately. The appropriate form of accounts also depends on the company’s legal structure, size, reporting framework and circumstances — a company may originally have been required to prepare micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts. Where a company is dormant, that does not remove its Companies House filing obligations, and dormancy and overdue filing are separate matters. Directors should also remember that Companies House accounts, Corporation Tax Returns submitted to HMRC and the annual confirmation statement are distinct compliance requirements, so clearing one does not automatically settle the others.

─── 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.

─── 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 for company accounts to be overdue?

It means the statutory deadline for delivering the company's accounts to Companies House has passed and the required accounts have not yet been filed. The deadline itself depends on the company's accounting reference period and its circumstances, so it is not identical for every company. Being overdue is a filing position — it does not, by itself, mean the company has been suspended or removed from the register.

Do I still need to file company accounts that are already overdue?

In most cases, yes. Where statutory accounts are required to be delivered to Companies House, they remain outstanding until they are prepared and filed, even once the deadline has passed. Filing them does not automatically cancel any late-filing penalty that may have been incurred, as the requirement to file and any applicable penalty are dealt with as separate matters.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have Companies House filing obligations and can therefore have overdue accounts if the required accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline. Dormant status should not be treated as a reason to ignore outstanding filings.

Will Companies House impose a late-filing penalty for overdue accounts?

Companies House can impose late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. Penalty levels are not the same in every case and depend on factors such as how late the accounts are and the company's circumstances. An accountant cannot automatically reduce, remove or cancel a Companies House penalty, and eligibility for an appeal depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules.

What happens if several accounting periods are outstanding?

Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period may need to be prepared and filed separately, and filing one set of accounts does not automatically resolve the others. The work involved depends on the records available and the periods concerned, so it is worth having the position reviewed so that every outstanding period can be identified and dealt with in the right order.

Can overdue accounts affect my company's status at Companies House?

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. That said, not every company with overdue accounts will be dissolved. If a strike-off notice has already been issued, or if the company has been dissolved, the situation may need separate restoration or legal advice rather than being treated as an ordinary overdue accounts filing.

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

Where the company qualifies for the micro-entity framework, its accounts may be prepared under that framework, and FRS 105 is the financial reporting standard that applies to qualifying entities using the micro-entity accounting framework. Qualification is not automatic simply because a business is small, and the company's legal structure, accounting period and eligibility need to be considered before the appropriate reporting framework is confirmed.

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

We can review your filing position, identify which accounting periods are outstanding and prepare the statutory accounts needed for Companies House. We may also need to look at whether separate matters such as a confirmation statement or Corporation Tax obligations remain outstanding. Throughout, we keep the process clear and explain what information we need from you and what happens next, without promising a particular outcome or timescale.
