 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 Sorting Out

Company accounts generally have to be delivered to Companies House by the applicable statutory deadline, which is calculated from the company’s accounting reference period and can vary depending on the company’s circumstances. Once that date passes without the required accounts being filed, the accounts are treated as overdue. Being overdue is not the same as having the company’s status suspended or removed from the register — it simply means the filing deadline has passed and the accounts remain outstanding. Even so, outstanding accounts are best dealt with promptly rather than left to sit. Companies House can impose late-filing penalties where accounts are delivered after the deadline, and the longer a filing remains outstanding, the more likely it is that further compliance matters arise, including confirmation statements and, in persistent cases, action against the company. Equally, an overdue position does not disappear because the company is dormant, has not traded or has no current income; dormant companies can still have annual accounts filing obligations. The right way forward depends on the company’s structure, its accounting periods, its size and the reporting framework it qualifies for, and each outstanding period may need to be prepared and filed separately. Sorting out overdue company accounts filing in Wythenshawe usually starts with a straightforward review of what is outstanding, followed by accurate preparation of the accounts and delivery to Companies House where required.

─── 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?

It means the statutory filing deadline for a particular accounting period has passed and the required accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. The deadline itself is not identical for every company — it is worked out from the company's accounting reference period and can be affected by factors such as whether it is a first set of accounts. The important point is that an overdue filing does not remove the obligation to file; the accounts still need to be prepared and delivered where required.

Why do company accounts end up overdue in the first place?

The reasons vary. Some directors are unsure when the deadline falls, particularly for a first accounting period. Others are waiting on bookkeeping records, bank statements or information from a previous accountant, or the company may have been quiet and assumed nothing needed filing. In other cases a change of accountant or a period of illness or disruption causes the filing to slip. Whatever the reason, the position is usually easier to resolve once someone reviews exactly which periods are outstanding.

Do overdue accounts still need to be filed if the company has not been trading?

In most cases, yes. A company that has not traded — or that is dormant for Companies House purposes — can still have annual accounts filing obligations, and dormancy does not by itself remove the requirement to deliver accounts. A dormant company can therefore be in an overdue position if the required accounts were not filed by the applicable deadline. What those accounts need to contain depends on the company's circumstances and whether it meets the criteria for dormant accounts.

Will Companies House issue a late-filing penalty?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline, and the penalty is not optional. The amount that may apply is not the same in every case — it depends on factors such as how late the accounts are and the type of company — so we do not estimate figures before looking at your position. Paying a penalty does not remove the requirement to file the outstanding accounts; filing the accounts and dealing with any penalty are separate matters.

What happens if more than one accounting period is outstanding?

Where a company has missed several deadlines, each outstanding accounting period generally needs to be addressed, which means more than one set of accounts may need to be prepared and filed. Filing one period does not automatically clear the others, and the later accounts often depend on figures from the earlier ones. We can review how many periods are overdue, work through them in order and set out what is needed for each.

Are CT600 Corporation Tax Returns separate from Companies House accounts?

Yes, they are separate compliance obligations. Statutory accounts are delivered to Companies House where required, while a Corporation Tax Return such as a CT600 is submitted to HMRC where applicable. Submitting overdue accounts to Companies House does not automatically satisfy any outstanding Corporation Tax obligations, so where both are overdue these need to be dealt with as distinct matters. We can confirm which filings apply to your company's circumstances.

Could overdue accounts affect my company's status?

Companies House can 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 does not mean every company with overdue accounts will be dissolved — the position depends on the individual circumstances. If your company has already received a strike-off notice, or has been dissolved, that situation may need to be treated separately and may require restoration or legal advice rather than a routine overdue filing.

Can Micro Entity Accounts help me bring my overdue accounts up to date?

Yes. We prepare and file overdue company accounts for directors in Wythenshawe and beyond, starting with a review of which periods are outstanding and which reporting framework applies. Some companies may qualify to prepare micro-entity accounts under FRS 105, but eligibility depends on the company's size, structure and accounting period, so this is confirmed rather than assumed. Our accountants are fully qualified and regulated by ICAEW, ACCA and AAT, and we will explain what information we need from you and how the filing will proceed.
