A clear path to filing
Less figuring it out. More getting it done.
One company. One reporting period. One clear next step at a time.
Start with your company.
Find your company’s details and reporting dates. If the register shows our dormant accounts service is not for it — a plc, a guarantee company, a company that traded — we say so straight away. Filed before? Last year’s figures come from the accounts Companies House published.
See exactly what’s going in.
Answer four questions about the company, then review the figures and the director’s statements. Make corrections before you approve.
We take it from there.
Pay the one-off fee. We submit your approved accounts and keep you updated until Companies House responds.
Before you search
Is my company dormant?
The same three questions the filing page asks. Nothing is saved.
1Has the company ever traded — sold anything, invoiced anyone or employed anyone?
2In this period, did any other money go in or out of the company — bank charges or interest, a loan, any payment? Paying for its shares, Companies House fees and late-filing penalties do not count.
3Is the company a subsidiary — owned or controlled by another company?
Thirty seconds
Answer the three questions the filing page will ask. A single “yes” means dormant accounts are not the right product — and we say so now, not after you pay.
You stay in control
Your accounts. Your approval. Your proof.
Before: the company, the period and every figure, laid out for your approval — nothing is submitted without it. After: a Filing Certificate with a verify link, the proof you forward to whoever asks.

The gov.uk service takes dormant accounts until 1 April 2028. Accountant figures are what the market typically charges, not something we measure.
Is my company definitely dormant?
Dormancy depends on the company’s transactions during the reporting period, and the public register cannot show those — we cannot see the company’s bank account. We check what the register does show (company type, status, earlier accounts), and before you approve or pay the filing page asks four questions and stops if dormant accounts are not right. If you are unsure, ask us before paying.
What do I need to have ready?
Your company number, reporting period, share capital details, approving director’s name and the company’s 6-character authentication code. If you need a new code, Companies House posts it to the registered office; allow up to 10 working days.
What does the price include?
Preparation, your review, submission, follow-up and corrections or resubmission if needed. One company and one reporting period. Confirmation statements and HMRC tax returns are separate.
Can I file the accounts myself?
Yes. Companies House’s own free online service takes dormant accounts until 1 April 2028. Our fee covers preparing and submitting the accounts for you, with review and support along the way.
What if the filing is rejected?
We help correct and resubmit it at no extra charge. If we cannot get the accounts accepted, we refund the filing fee. You can also request a full refund before submission. See our refund policy for the details.
I received a letter. Are you Companies House?
No. PromptFiling is an independent service operated by Northstar Infinity Works Ltd. Company details come from the public register. You do not have to buy our service to meet your filing obligations.
