When is my confirmation statement due?

The CS01 is the annual filing with no numbers in it — and the one whose absence can strike your company off. Enter your incorporation date, or your last statement date, to see exactly when the next one is due.

What you're confirming

The confirmation statement doesn't report a year — it confirms a snapshot of your public record is still correct. If nothing has changed, you're simply confirming that. If something has, you update it first and then confirm.

  • Registered office address and email
  • Directors and any company secretary
  • People with significant control (PSCs)
  • SIC codes — what the company does
  • The statement of capital and shareholders

How the timing works

Your review period is 12 months long, starting from incorporation or your last statement. After it ends you have 14 days to file. File early and the next 12-month period starts from that date, not your original anniversary.

Missing it is criminal, not just costly

Unlike a late-accounts penalty, failing to file a confirmation statement is an offence by the company and its officers, and grounds for strike-off. The £50 fee understates how much rides on it.

Common questions

When is my confirmation statement due?

Your review period runs for 12 months from your incorporation date, or from the date of your last confirmation statement. You then have 14 days after the review period ends to file. You can file early — doing so resets the 12-month clock from that date.

How much does a confirmation statement cost?

£50 to file online, or £110 on paper, since 1 February 2026. It's an annual fee, entirely separate from your accounts or Corporation Tax.

What does the confirmation statement include now?

It confirms the details Companies House holds are still correct: registered office, directors, people with significant control, SIC codes and the statement of capital. Following identity-verification reforms, confirming that verification is in place has become part of keeping the record current.

What happens if I miss it?

Not filing is a criminal offence by the company and its officers, and Companies House can strike the company off the register. It's a more serious consequence than the civil penalty for late accounts — which is why it shouldn't be the filing you forget.
