Many companies may have recently received an email from Companies House regarding upcoming changes to accounts filing requirements.
The Government has now confirmed that from 1 April 2028 small and micro companies will be required to file profit and loss accounts with Companies House. Importantly, these businesses will be able to opt out of having their profit and loss accounts published on the public register.
The move to software only accounts filing has also been confirmed, with implementation delayed until April 2028 to give businesses more time to prepare.
There is no immediate action required, and we will continue to keep clients informed as further guidance becomes available. If you have any questions in the meantime, please get in touch with our team.
