Dormant Company Accounts Filing Service for UK Limited Companies

Even if your company did not trade, you still have filing duties. Dormant companies must file Dormant Accounts with Companies House.

Xact+ Accountants prepare and file dormant accounts accurately. We confirm dormancy status and submit on time. You stay compliant without unnecessary work.

Who Needs to File Dormant Accounts?

You must file dormant accounts if your company:

  • Was incorporated but never traded
  • Stopped trading during the year
  • Is temporarily inactive

Dormant status does not remove filing obligations.
 Companies House still requires accounts each year.

 What Are Dormant Company Accounts?

Dormant company accounts confirm that your company had no significant accounting transactions during the financial year.

A company is usually dormant if:

➤ It did not trade
➤ It received no income
➤ It had no business expenses

Certain statutory payments are allowed and do not break dormancy.

Failing to file dormant accounts creates compliance risks. Companies House treats this as a legal breach.

Late Filing Penalties

Companies House may issue penalties for late submission. Repeated failures increase enforcement risk.

Companies House may start strike-off proceedings. Your company could be dissolved if accounts remain overdue.

Director Responsibility

Directors remain legally responsible under company law. Failure to file may affect future company roles.
