He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail.

 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

A company’s annual accounts become overdue when the applicable statutory filing deadline has passed and the required accounts have not been delivered to Companies House. The deadline is not the same for every company — it depends on factors such as the accounting reference period, whether it is the company’s first set of accounts and the specific circumstances of the company — so directors in Yorkshire who are unsure of their position should check the relevant filing date rather than assume they are still within time. Accounts that were originally prepared, or would have been prepared, as micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts can all fall overdue, and the reporting framework that applies depends on the company’s size, legal structure, accounting period and eligibility, not simply on how small the business feels. Once accounts are overdue, Companies House may apply a late-filing penalty, the position is visible on the company’s public record, and persistent non-compliance can increase the risk of further action being taken against the company. Settling the filing position earlier is usually more straightforward than leaving it, but the practical consequences vary from one company to another, and there is no single outcome that applies to every overdue filing. If you are dealing with an overdue set of accounts, we can review your circumstances, explain what appears to remain outstanding and assist with preparing and filing the documents 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 set of annual accounts has passed and those accounts have not yet been delivered to Companies House. Overdue is a filing position rather than a change to your company's legal status, and the company remains on the register. The deadline itself is not the same for every company — it depends on the accounting reference period and other circumstances — so it is worth confirming your dates rather than working from assumption.

Why do company accounts become overdue in the first place?

The reasons vary. Some directors are unsure when their first accounts are due or have had a change to the accounting reference date. Others have been waiting on bookkeeping records, have had an interrupted year, or assumed that a quiet or dormant period means nothing needs to be filed. Whatever the reason, the obligation to deliver the accounts does not disappear because the deadline has been missed, and the earlier the position is reviewed the easier it usually is to deal with.

Do I still have to file the accounts even though they are late?

In most cases, yes. Accounts that have not been delivered to Companies House remain outstanding, and the requirement to prepare and deliver them generally continues until that has been done. Filing the accounts and dealing with any late-filing penalty are separate matters, so paying a penalty does not remove the need to file. We can review what appears to be outstanding and assist with preparing the required documents for your review and authorisation.

Can a dormant company have overdue accounts?

Yes. Dormancy and overdue filing are separate issues. A dormant company can still have annual accounts filing obligations at Companies House, and if those accounts were not delivered by the applicable deadline they can be overdue in the same way as an actively trading company's accounts. Whether accounts are actually required, and in what form, depends on the company's circumstances, so dormant status should not be treated as an automatic exemption.

What happens if my accounts are filed after the deadline?

Companies House can impose a late-filing penalty when accounts are delivered after the applicable deadline. The penalty depends on the circumstances and how late the filing is, and not every company receives the same outcome. Filing the accounts does not automatically cancel or reduce any penalty, and any appeal against a penalty depends on the circumstances and the applicable Companies House rules. We can explain what has been issued and help you deal with the outstanding filing itself.

I have several years of accounts outstanding — can they all be dealt with?

Where more than one accounting period is outstanding, each period generally needs to be addressed separately, because each set of accounts relates to its own period and its own records. Filing one set does not automatically resolve the others. We can look at the full picture, work through the periods in a sensible order and assist with preparing and filing each set of accounts that is required, subject to the information available for each period.

Can micro-entity accounts be used if the company qualifies?

Some companies with overdue accounts may qualify for the micro-entity reporting framework, which uses FRS 105, the financial reporting standard applicable to qualifying entities. Not every company qualifies, and eligibility has to be considered properly rather than assumed. An overdue company may originally have been required to prepare micro-entity accounts, small-company accounts or another applicable form of statutory accounts. We confirm the appropriate basis before preparation begins.

Are CT600 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 submitting overdue accounts to Companies House does not satisfy any outstanding HMRC obligations. A confirmation statement is also separate from annual accounts and is filed with Companies House. Where these items are outstanding alongside your accounts, we can help you identify what still needs attention.
