Filing annual accounts late can result in automatic financial penalties. The fines increase based on the length of the delay (for private companies and LLPs):
Up to 1 month: £150
1 to 3 months: £375
3 to 6 months: £750
More than 6 months: £1,500
Repeated late filings over consecutive years can lead to double penalties. Additionally, persistent non-compliance may result in the company being struck off the register.
For proper clarification, consult with an expert.
