Frequently asked questions about reporting to Companies House

Question

Do I need to submit reports if the company has not been active during the year?

Answer

Yes, even if the company has not been active, reporting to Companies House is mandatory. In this case, a simplified or ‘zero’ report is submitted, confirming the absence of operations. Late submission may result in fines and legal problems.

Question

How does Companies House verify the accuracy of the reports submitted?

Answer

Companies House checks the submitted documents for compliance with legal requirements, but does not conduct an in-depth audit of financial data. The primary responsibility for the accuracy of the information lies with the company's directors, and sanctions may be applied if violations are detected.

Question

Do I need to submit additional reports if the company has received external funding?

Answer

Companies House does not usually require separate reports on external financing, but such information may be reflected in the annual financial statements. At the same time, investors or lenders may require separate reporting in accordance with the terms of the agreements.
