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.

 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

Understanding Overdue Company Accounts and Outstanding Companies House Filings

Company accounts generally have to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline. That deadline is not the same for every company: it depends on the company’s accounting reference period, its filing history and its particular circumstances. Once the deadline passes without the required accounts being delivered, those accounts are treated as overdue, and the filing obligation does not disappear simply because time has moved on. Directors in Wiltshire often find accounts become overdue for practical reasons — a change of accountant, incomplete bookkeeping records, a busy trading period, or an assumption that nothing needs to be filed because the company has not traded. Where accounts remain outstanding, addressing them promptly is usually the most sensible approach, because the longer a filing stays outstanding, the more serious the position can become. Companies House may impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the deadline, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action in relation to the company. It is also worth remembering that overdue accounts are only one element of a company’s compliance picture. Depending on the circumstances, a company may have separate confirmation statement obligations, outstanding Corporation Tax Returns such as CT600s to HMRC, or Companies House information that needs updating. Preparing and filing overdue statutory accounts does not, by itself, resolve those separate matters. The accounts required can also differ: a company may have originally been required to prepare micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts, depending on its size, legal structure and reporting framework. We can review your circumstances and help establish what is outstanding and what needs to be done.

─── 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?

Company accounts become overdue when the applicable filing deadline has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. It does not mean the obligation has gone away — it means the filing is outstanding. The deadline itself depends on the company's accounting reference period and circumstances, so the position varies from one company to another. If you are unsure whether anything remains due, we can review the company's Companies House records with you and confirm what still needs attention.

Do we still need to file accounts that are already overdue?

Yes. Where accounts were required to be delivered to Companies House and remain outstanding, they still need to be prepared and filed. Filing after the deadline does not remove the underlying requirement. Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period generally has to be addressed on its own terms, as filing one set of accounts does not automatically clear the others. The records and financial information needed will depend on the periods being prepared.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

It can. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company may still have Companies House filing obligations, including annual accounts, and where those accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline they can become overdue. Being dormant does not automatically exempt a company from filing, and it is one of the more common reasons a company falls behind without anyone realising it.

What happens if company accounts are filed late with Companies House?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty where accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty depends on the circumstances and how late the accounts are, so no assumption should be made that every company faces the same outcome. Where accounts remain outstanding for longer, the position can become more serious. Rather than waiting to see what happens, it is usually better to get the outstanding accounts prepared and delivered.

Does paying a late-filing penalty remove the requirement to file the accounts?

No. The penalty and the filing requirement are separate matters. A penalty may be payable because accounts were delivered late, but the accounts themselves still have to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required. Equally, an accountant cannot automatically reduce, cancel or remove a Companies House penalty. Any appeal depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and eligibility is not guaranteed.

Can overdue accounts affect our company status or lead to strike-off?

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. It does not follow that every company with overdue accounts will be dissolved, and filing outstanding accounts should not be treated as a guarantee that strike-off action will be prevented or reversed. If the company has received a strike-off notice, or has already been dissolved, the matter may need separate restoration or legal advice rather than being handled as an ordinary overdue accounts filing.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements dealt with at the same time?

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 submitted to Companies House separately from the annual accounts. Filing overdue accounts does not automatically satisfy HMRC obligations or replace a confirmation statement. Where several filings are outstanding, we can help you identify what applies to your company and deal with each item in turn.

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

Some companies may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, and where a company qualifies, FRS 105 is the financial reporting standard that applies to that framework. Not every company with overdue accounts will qualify, however, and eligibility depends on the company's size, legal structure, accounting period and other circumstances. A company that was originally required to prepare small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts may need to continue on that basis, so we confirm the correct framework before preparation begins.
