Everything we do for your dormant company
Purpose-built for dormant and non-trading companies — and, since August 2026, dormant LLPs, flat management and RTM companies, and community interest companies' tax returns. Here's exactly what you get, in plain English — no accountant required.
Adding your company takes seconds
Three steps. We do the digging; you confirm what we find.
- 1
Look up your company
Enter your company or LLP number. We pull your name, incorporation date, registered address, and accounting dates from Companies House automatically.
- 2
See what's outstanding
We read your full filing history and work out every accounts period you still owe, right back to incorporation. Years behind? You'll see exactly what's due — or run the free Companies House audit for the same picture before you sign up.
- 3
Share capital, read for you
We read your issued share capital straight from your last confirmation statement and fill it in — you just confirm it's right.

Find your company, and the rest fills itself in
Start typing a name or number and we match it on the Companies House register. Name, number, registered office, incorporation date and accounting dates all come from the public record — you confirm what we found.
- 1Search by company name or number — we match it on the register as you type.
- 2Know the number already? Enter it directly.
- 3Your details are encrypted and used only to file your accounts and tax returns.
The add-company screen: search the Companies House register by name or number, or type the number in directly.
Filing, done for you
We pick the right accounts and submit them straight to the government. The fiddly parts are ours.
Pick the right accounts for you
Genuinely dormant? Choose to file dormant accounts. Not trading but repaying a Bounce Back Loan or similar? Generate and file FRS 105 micro-entity accounts from a few figures. You choose at filing time, in plain English.
Filed straight to the government
Your accounts and CT600 go directly to Companies House and HMRC through the same official filing systems Xero and FreeAgent use. No printing, no posting, no portals.
Dormant LLPs, not just companies
Add an LLP by name or number (they start OC, SO or NC) and we file its dormant accounts to Companies House the same way. The flow knows it's an LLP: you name the designated member who approves the accounts, the balance sheet shows members' interests instead of share capital, and there's no Corporation Tax section — an LLP is tax-transparent, so any HMRC return would be the SA800 partnership return, due only if HMRC sends a notice to file. If HMRC has, DormantFile files the nil SA800 too — enable Self Assessment in Settings — or an accountant can ask HMRC to withdraw the notice. Trading and micro-entity LLP accounts remain an accountant's job.
Flat management and RTM companies too
Flat management and RTM companies are companies limited by guarantee — no shares, so there's no share-capital question for the flow to ask. We file dormant accounts when service charges sit in the statutory trust away from the company's own books, or micro-entity accounts when they run through it instead, plus the nil CT600 if HMRC wants one — unlike a dormant LLP, a guarantee company is within Corporation Tax scope. The accounts carry the correct legal form for a guarantee company throughout.
CICs — the tax return half
Community interest companies get the HMRC side end-to-end: there's no CIC-specific box on the CT600, so a CIC's nil return files exactly like any other company's. The accounts half we can't do, and neither can any other filing software — Companies House only accepts CIC accounts alongside a CIC34 community interest report and a £15 fee, by post or through its own CIC service. Add the CIC and the dashboard tracks both deadlines, files the return, and points you at the CIC34 route for the rest.
Long periods? We split them for you
If your accounts cover more than 12 months, HMRC needs two Corporation Tax returns — a 12-month period and a stub. We work out the split and hand you both periods ready to add, dates pre-filled. Most filing tools can't do this.
Your accounts, attached — no re-keying
Every CT600 carries your statutory accounts. We pull the iXBRL you already filed at Companies House and attach it automatically — nothing to re-type. Filed elsewhere? Upload your own instead.
Years behind? Catch up in one sitting
We read your full Companies House history and surface every unfiled accounts period right back to incorporation. File them oldest-first — no period limit, no extra charge.
The technical documents, handled
We prepare the iXBRL accounts and tax computations HMRC and Companies House require. You never touch the XML.
Know the result in minutes
After you submit, we check with HMRC and Companies House and email you the moment it's accepted — or the exact rejection reason and what to fix if it isn't.
Corporation Tax periods — confirmed by you
Enter your UTR and CT600 period dates. We suggest the periods from your accounts and your Companies House record, you confirm every one — and confirmed periods get their statutory deadline tracked and reminded. HMRC's letter is always definitive.
Already filed it elsewhere?
Mark a period as done — through your accountant or another service — so it drops out of your list and reminders.

Before anything is submitted you see the exact document Companies House will receive, laid out as you'd print it — the directors' report, the dormancy statement and the balance sheet. Download a copy, or go back and change the accounts type.
- 1The generated accounts — company, period and directors' report, built from the register.
- 2Download a copy for your own records before you file.
- 3The balance sheet: £1 share capital, nothing else — what dormant accounts should look like.
The preview step shows the dormant accounts document exactly as it will be submitted to Companies House.
We watch every Companies House deadline, so you don't have to
The thing that keeps directors up at night is a missed filing and a penalty. This is how we help make sure that never happens.
We email you before every deadline
Reminders at 90, 30, 14, 7, 3, and 1 day before your accounts and confirmation statement deadlines — and overdue alerts at 1, 7, 30, and 90 days after. One short email a day, with the penalty amount so you know the stakes.
Register watch: know if anyone touches your company
Dormant companies are prime targets for hijacking — fraudsters file a director or address change and trade on a clean history nobody is watching. We check your company's public record every day and alert you to filings that change who runs or owns it: officer changes, address moves, ownership (PSC) changes, name changes, charges and insolvency filings. Routine accounts and confirmation statements don't raise an alert. If it was you, dismiss it. If it wasn't, you'll know in time to report it and act.
Autopilot: file next year in one click
Optional, and for dormant accounts only — companies and LLPs alike. Turn on autopilot from the autopilot page or settings and we store your Companies House authentication code encrypted (AES-256-GCM, never logged), prepare next year's dormant accounts, and email you 30 days before the deadline — one click files them. Turning autopilot off keeps the code saved so re-enabling is one click; remove it any time from settings, which deletes it immediately. For companies, the CT600 is always filed by you.
Synced with Companies House daily
If your accounting date changes or a period is filed elsewhere, we notice automatically — no manual updates.
Spots filings made elsewhere
Filed through your accountant? We find it in your Companies House history and tick it off for you.
Strike-off watch
When a strike-off notice appears in the Gazette, we catch it in the daily sync and email you while the objection window is still open and you can act. And if the company is struck off or restored, we pause or resume filing and reminders and tell you straight away.
Hide what you're handling separately
Mark a period as not tracked and it stops showing up in reminders and your to-do list.
Every deadline in your own calendar
Subscribe once in Google Calendar, Outlook, or Apple Calendar — accounts, CT600 dates you've entered, confirmation statements, and director ID verification, across all your companies, with reminders built in. Dates update themselves as you file, so your calendar is never stale.
Director ID verification, tracked
Every existing director must verify their identity with Companies House by the company's first confirmation statement date after November 2025. We track the date, remind you, and put it in your calendar feed.
A full history per company
Every filing, acceptance, rejection, and reminder for each company, in order.

The whole portfolio on one screen
