Limited Company Accounts

Your limited company accounts, filed and finished.

Most limited company directors spend far longer on year-end than they should — chasing records, second-guessing deadlines and waiting to find out what the tax bill is. OD Accountants handles statutory accounts, Corporation Tax and Companies House filings on a fixed fee, delivered by a chartered management accounting firm with 11+ years serving UK SMEs.

  • Statutory accounts prepared and filed before the deadline
  • Corporation Tax calculated and submitted — no late-filing surprises
  • Companies House filings handled directly as an Authorised Corporate Service Provider
  • Tax position visible months before the payment date, not after

No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean, filed accounts and nothing owed.

Sound familiar?

Year-end arrives and the numbers still aren't ready.

For most limited company directors, the annual accounts process is a combination of last-minute document-gathering, uncertainty about what Corporation Tax is actually owed, and a nagging awareness that Companies House deadlines have a way of arriving without warning. None of it is difficult. It just requires someone who is on top of it all year, not only when the filing window opens.

  • Year-end accounts produced in a rush with records still incomplete
  • Corporation Tax bill arriving as a surprise rather than a known figure
  • Companies House deadlines tracked manually, with penalties the price of forgetting

What a well-run accounts function looks like

When the records are current and the filing calendar is managed, year-end becomes a routine process rather than a stressful one. Your tax liability is a known figure well before the payment date, and Companies House submissions go in on time, every time.

  • Accounts prepared from clean, current records — no last-minute scramble
  • Corporation Tax calculated and communicated months before it falls due
  • Companies House filings handled directly under the ACSP regime — deadlines tracked for you
  • Fixed-fee pricing agreed upfront — no unexpected invoice at year-end

Been with OD Accountants for over a year now. Niall and the team are brilliant. They helped me set up a company and get everything I needed in place to run my business. I'm a tricky client due to my 'digital nomad' status, but their advice…

What you get

Everything a limited company needs, covered.

The engagement covers compliance — accounts, Corporation Tax, Companies House — plus the advisory layer that keeps your numbers visible and your decisions informed throughout the year.

01

Statutory Accounts and Corporation Tax

Annual statutory accounts prepared in line with Companies Act requirements and filed with both HMRC and Companies House. Corporation Tax is calculated, planned and submitted — your liability is a confirmed figure well before the payment deadline, not a discovery on the day.

Included as standard
02

Companies House Filings — ACSP Direct

Confirmation statements and statutory submissions are handled directly by the firm under the Authorised Corporate Service Provider regime. No intermediary, no delays — filings go in on time and are tracked as part of the ongoing engagement.

ACSP registered
03

Management Reporting and Director Tax

Monthly or quarterly management accounts give you a current view of performance, margins and cash position — not just a year-end snapshot. Director self-assessment and personal tax planning are available alongside the company engagement, so the full picture is handled in one place.

Advisory add-on

Why OD Accountants

What makes this firm different from a standard compliance practice.

Any accountant can file your accounts. The difference is what happens in between — the visibility, the responsiveness and the depth of commercial knowledge behind the engagement.

🏛️

ACSP Status — No Intermediary Needed

OD Accountants is an Authorised Corporate Service Provider, which means Companies House filings — confirmation statements and statutory submissions — are handled directly by the firm. There is no third party in the chain and no risk of a missed deadline because someone else dropped the ball.

📈

Chartered Depth Behind Every Engagement

Founder Niall O'Driscoll FCMA, CGMA spent 10+ years as a freelance accountant specialising in restructures and turnarounds, including listed UK and overseas companies. That level of commercial finance knowledge sits behind every limited company engagement — including straightforward ones. It is there when you need it.

☁️

Cloud-First Means Current, Not Annual

The firm is built around modern cloud accounting software and best-of-breed SaaS integrations. Your accounts are not assembled once a year from a shoebox of records — the books are maintained throughout the year, which makes year-end a formality rather than a project.

Getting started

Up and running in four straightforward steps.

The onboarding process is designed to be low-effort on your side. Most clients are fully set up within a week of the initial call.

1

Book a discovery call

A short call to understand your company's situation — size, current accounting setup, what is filed and what is outstanding. No preparation needed on your part. You will leave the call knowing exactly what is proposed and what it will cost.

2

Receive a fixed-fee proposal

A written proposal covering exactly what is included, at a fixed monthly or annual fee. No variable charges, no surprises. If the scope needs adjusting, that conversation happens before anything is agreed.

3

We handle the transition

If you are switching from another accountant, the professional clearance and handover is handled by the firm. If your records are behind, a catch-up plan is agreed as part of onboarding. You do not need to do the chasing.

4

Accounts filed, tax visible, done

Statutory accounts, Corporation Tax and Companies House submissions are filed on time. Your tax position is a known figure throughout the year, not a revelation at year-end. The accounts function runs in the background so you can spend your time on the business.

“My other-half introduced me to Niall at OD Accountants and I have to say my finances are so much the better for it. Unlike my previous Accountants, Niall is far more hands-on, available for advice and able to care for me as an individual, rather than a faceless client. His fees are very reasonable and the money he has saved me more than covers them. If you need an Accountant who cares, Niall and OD Chartered Management Accountants are the way to go.”

Questions

Things limited company directors usually ask first.

Do you handle both the Companies House filing and the HMRC Corporation Tax submission, or just one of them?+

Both. The statutory accounts go to Companies House and the Corporation Tax return — CT600 — goes to HMRC. As an Authorised Corporate Service Provider, the firm handles Companies House submissions directly. The two filings are coordinated as part of the same engagement, so nothing falls through the gap between them.

What does limited company accounting cost and what is included in the fee?+

Fees are fixed and agreed upfront before any work begins. The exact figure depends on the company's size, complexity and what is currently in place, which is why the starting point is a short discovery call and a written proposal. Clients consistently describe the pricing as competitive, and the tax savings generated tend to be considerably more than the annual fee.

My books are behind and my previous accountant was slow. How does switching work?+

Most new clients arrive with records that need some degree of catch-up work. The professional clearance from the previous accountant is handled by the firm, and a catch-up plan is agreed as part of onboarding with a clear cost attached to it. The situation is less uncommon than most people think.

Is there a long-term contract or a minimum tie-in period?+

No long-term contract. Engagements run on a rolling basis. If the arrangement is not working after three months, you leave with filed accounts, clean records and nothing outstanding. The firm's client retention — with multiple clients still active after 7, 10 and 11 years — is a reasonable indicator of how often that conversation actually happens.

Can you also handle the director's personal self-assessment alongside the company accounts?+

Yes. Director self-assessment and personal tax planning can be included alongside the limited company engagement. Having both handled in one place means the interaction between salary, dividends and Corporation Tax is planned rather than discovered — which is generally where the meaningful tax savings sit.

How far in advance will I know what my Corporation Tax bill is going to be?+

With current books and a cloud-first workflow, there is no reason to wait until the year-end accounts are finalised to have a reasonable view of the Corporation Tax liability. The goal is that the figure is a confirmed number months before the payment date — not something that surfaces with a few weeks to prepare for it.
