## Next steps
1. File accounts for the period ending 2026-03-31 by 2026-12-31 (80 day(s) left). Subsequent (or first ≤12 months): private company / LLP — 9 months after ARD (GOV.UK).
2. Penalty schedule if you miss the due date: +1 day £150; +31 days £150; +91 days £750; +181 days £750.
3. Confirmation statement is overdue (due 2026-05-15, 150 day(s) late). File CS01 online (fee about £50). There is no automatic accounts-style CS penalty — but after a warning, Companies House may impose a civil financial penalty (illustrative CH civil-penalty guidance, not automatic). Illustrative planning figure used here: £1,000.
4. IDV checklist clear for the directors/PSCs you counted — keep verification status current when officers change.
5. Act now: instruct your accountant today and file online or by guaranteed delivery for the accounts deadline 2026-12-31 and the overdue confirmation statement (due 2026-05-15) — first-class post does not guarantee arrival. Also register for Companies House email reminders and re-check the live record on Find and update company information.
6. Total modelled exposure today: £1,000 (accounts automatic £0 + CS illustrative £1,000). Prioritise clearing the automatic accounts penalty risk first.

## Assumptions and disclaimer
- CS civil-penalty figures are illustrative CH civil-penalty guidance, not automatic.
- Confirmation statements have no automatic accounts-style late fee. After a warning notice, Companies House may impose a civil financial penalty if the CS remains unfiled. Figures below are illustrative planning bands only.
- Penalty bands: private/LLP £150 / £375 / £750 / £1,500; public £750 / £1,500 / £3,000 / £7,500. Doubled if late in two successive financial years.
