 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 filing deadline for a set of annual accounts has passed and those accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. The deadline is not the same for every company: it depends on factors such as the company’s accounting reference period, whether the company is newly incorporated, and the applicable rules for that particular period, so the sensible starting point is always to check what has actually been filed and what remains outstanding. Once accounts are late, the obligation to prepare and deliver them does not disappear. Directors of a company in Willenhall with outstanding accounts should treat them as a priority, because Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty on accounts delivered after the applicable deadline, and leaving the position unresolved for longer can make it harder to put right. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House, while Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600 are submitted separately to HMRC, and a confirmation statement is a separate filing again. Bringing everything back up to date normally means dealing with each outstanding accounting period and each obligation on its own terms, and the appropriate form of accounts depends on the company’s structure, size, reporting framework and 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.

─── 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?

Company accounts become overdue when the statutory filing deadline for a set of annual accounts has passed and those accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. That deadline is not identical for every company, as it depends on the company's accounting reference period and its particular circumstances, so the first step is usually to check the company's filing history and establish which periods are still outstanding. Being overdue does not remove the requirement to file; it simply means an obligation that should already have been met is still waiting to be completed.

Do dormant companies still have to deal with overdue accounts?

In many cases, yes. Dormant status and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company may still be required to deliver annual accounts to Companies House, and if that filing was missed, the accounts are overdue in the same way as any other company's. Dormancy does not automatically exempt a company from its filing obligations, and the exact position depends on the company's circumstances and the accounting period in question.

Will Companies House impose a penalty for filing late?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. Whether a penalty applies, and how it is calculated, depends on the relevant rules and how late the accounts are. Liability for a penalty is a separate matter from the requirement to file the accounts themselves — the accounts still have to be prepared and delivered, and any penalty is dealt with alongside that process rather than instead of it.

We have missed more than one accounting period. Can each set of accounts still be prepared?

Yes. Where several accounting periods are outstanding, each period normally needs to be prepared and filed separately, and completing one set of accounts does not automatically resolve the others. The information required for each period may differ, particularly if the company's activity changed during that time, so it helps to review the full picture before starting. We can look at the outstanding periods together and work through them in a sensible order.

Can micro-entity accounts be used to bring an overdue filing up to date?

Possibly, where the company qualifies. Some smaller companies may be eligible for the micro-entity reporting framework, and FRS 105 is the financial reporting standard that applies to qualifying entities using that framework. Eligibility depends on the company's legal structure, size and accounting period, and it cannot be assumed simply because a business is small. Where the company does not qualify, another applicable form of statutory accounts would be prepared instead.

Are Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements connected to the accounts filing?

They are separate obligations. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House, whereas a Corporation Tax Return such as a CT600 is submitted to HMRC where applicable, and a confirmation statement is a separate Companies House filing again. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy any outstanding Corporation Tax requirements or replace a confirmation statement, so it is worth checking each obligation individually and addressing them where they apply.

What information is needed to prepare overdue company accounts?

It depends on the company and the period being prepared, but typically we would ask for bookkeeping records, bank statements, invoices, expense records, details of any assets or liabilities, previous accounts where available, and current company details. Where records are incomplete, we can discuss what can reasonably be reconstructed for the period. The aim is to produce accounts that properly reflect the company's financial position for the relevant accounting period.

I have received a strike-off notice — can overdue accounts still be filed?

That situation needs care. Companies House may take action against companies that persistently fail to meet their filing obligations, and a strike-off notice indicates a more serious stage of that process. Filing accounts does not guarantee that strike-off action will be stopped or reversed, and where a company has already been dissolved, restoration is a separate matter that may require legal advice. We can review your circumstances and explain what we are able to assist with, but it is best to act promptly.
