✅ Stay Compliant with Companies House – Even If You Don’t Trade
If your UK Limited Company (Ltd) is not actively trading, you’re still legally required to file Dormant Company Accounts with Companies House every year. At YUDEY, we provide fast, accurate, and low-cost filing services to help you maintain compliance, avoid penalties, and keep your company in good standing.
📌 What Is a Dormant Company?
A dormant company is a registered UK Ltd that has had no significant accounting transactions during the financial year. This means:
-
❌ No sales or purchases
-
❌ No wages, dividends, or expenses paid
-
✅ May still hold assets or a registered office
-
✅ Can be kept open for future use (e.g. holding name, IP, or property)
Dormancy applies only if no activity is recorded in the company’s bank account or books.
🧾 What Needs to Be Filed?
| Filing Requirement | Description |
|---|---|
| Dormant Accounts | Simple balance sheet + company info |
| Confirmation Statement | Annual update of company officers & info |
| Corporation Tax Notice (Nil) | Notify HMRC that no tax return is due |
Dormant companies usually do not file a CT600, unless specifically requested by HMRC.
⏱️ Filing Deadlines
| Filing Type | Deadline |
|---|---|
| First accounts | 21 months from incorporation date |
