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 Worth Acting Early

Company accounts become overdue when the statutory filing deadline for a particular accounting period has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. That deadline is not the same for every company: it depends on factors such as the accounting reference period, whether it is a first set of accounts and the company’s individual circumstances, so the sensible starting point is to confirm exactly which periods remain outstanding. Once a deadline has passed, the filing obligation does not disappear. Whether the company has traded, made a loss, been dormant or simply had a quiet year, accounts may still need to be prepared and delivered where they are required. Leaving matters unresolved can allow the position to build up, as further accounting periods may also fall due, and Companies House may take action where filing obligations are not met. Directors in Woodbury who find that accounts are outstanding are usually best served by dealing with them promptly: identifying each affected period, gathering the underlying records, preparing the correct form of statutory accounts and submitting them where applicable. Any penalty or further consequence depends on the circumstances, and we can review your position before any work begins.

─── 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 when company accounts are overdue?

Company 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 relevant deadline is not identical for every company — it depends on matters such as the company's accounting reference period, whether it is filing a first set of accounts and its individual circumstances — so the usual first step is to confirm which periods remain outstanding. Once a deadline has passed, the underlying filing obligation does not go away.

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

In most cases, yes. The accounts still need to be prepared and delivered to Companies House where required, even though the deadline has passed. Filing late does not replace the original obligation, and the outstanding period does not simply lapse. The form the accounts should take and the information needed can vary depending on the company's circumstances, so it is worth reviewing the position before anything is submitted.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and late filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have Companies House filing obligations, and if the annual accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline, they become overdue in the same way as any other outstanding filing. Where a company genuinely qualifies as dormant, the accounts may be prepared on a dormant basis, subject to the relevant conditions being met.

Will Companies House charge a late-filing penalty, and does paying it close the matter?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and the amount can vary depending on how late the filing is. Paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts — the two matters are dealt with separately. If you think a penalty should be reconsidered, whether an appeal is available depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules, and we can talk that through with you.

We have more than one accounting period outstanding. How is that handled?

Where several periods are outstanding, each one generally needs to be addressed separately, which can mean preparing and filing more than one set of accounts. It is usually sensible to work through them in chronological order so the records, comparatives and any related Corporation Tax position stay consistent. The work involved depends on the number of periods, the records available and the company's circumstances.

Can overdue accounts affect our company's status?

An overdue filing does not automatically change a company's status or remove it from the Companies House register. However, 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. If a company has already received a strike-off notice, or has been dissolved, the situation may need separate advice or a restoration process rather than being treated as an ordinary late filing.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns and confirmation statements covered by filing overdue accounts?

No — these 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 goes to Companies House and is not the same as annual accounts. Submitting overdue accounts does not by itself settle any outstanding Corporation Tax or confirmation statement obligations, so each one is worth checking.

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

We support directors who need to bring outstanding filings up to date. That usually begins with a review of which accounting periods remain outstanding, followed by preparation of the statutory accounts that are due — under the micro-entity framework, small-company rules or another applicable framework where the company qualifies — and assistance with delivery to Companies House. We can also help you understand related obligations such as Corporation Tax matters so they are not overlooked. All of our accountants are fully qualified and regulated by ICAEW, ACCA and AAT, and pricing is set out clearly in advance.
