Deadline to File Limited Company Accounts

30st September 2025 – For accounting period ending 31st December 2024

If your company’s financial year ended on 31st December 2024, your statutory accounts must be filed with Companies House no later than 31st September 2025.

📌 What Needs to Be Filed

• Annual (statutory) accounts – including a balance sheet, profit and loss account, notes, and a director’s report (unless you qualify as a small company).

• These accounts must give a true and fair view of the company’s financial position and meet UK accounting standards.

⚠️ Why This Deadline Matters

• Missing the deadline results in an automatic late filing penalty from Companies House, starting at £150 and increasing the longer the delay.

• Late filing can also damage your company’s credit rating and reputation.
