Fiscal Umbrella Accountants
Company secretarial and formations that keep Companies House duties on track
Company secretarial and formations cover incorporation, confirmation statements and the Companies House duties your limited company faces each year.
A form can be filed correctly while the wider set-up stays unexamined. Incorporation decisions shape what happens next, from director pay and payroll to future company changes.
Fiscal Umbrella provides company formations, confirmation statements and Companies House filing support for growing limited companies in Luton and across the UK. Fixed fees are agreed in writing, and Fasih Khan is ACCA qualified.

What proper company administration prevents later
Know what Companies House expects
Formation details, confirmation statements and annual accounts are handled on the right timetable.
Make company changes when they happen
Director and company detail changes are filed before old information causes confusion.
Connect filings to director decisions
Company administration prompts a review of payroll, dividends and the next stage of growth.
The company decisions hidden behind routine filings
Each form points to a decision that deserves more than a deadline reminder.
- Incorporate
“I formed the company quickly and nobody checked whether the set-up suited how I planned to pay myself.”
Payroll and director pay are then dealt with after the decision has already been made.
- Deadline
“The confirmation statement reminder arrived, but I assumed my accountant was already dealing with it.”
Responsibility stays unclear until the filing is due.
- Change
“We changed a director and the registered details still show the old position.”
The public company details no longer match who is responsible.
- Day 90
What changes once someone looks beyond the form?
We check the company details, filing dates and anything currently outstanding. Then we cover the decision behind each form, including payroll and director pay. The next Companies House duty is agreed before the current one is filed.
Quick check · no email
If your accountant can’t tell you when your accounts and confirmation statement are due, which company changes need filing, and get back to you this week, you have the wrong accountant
Answer these three questions about the support your current accountant provides.
Question 1 of 3
Could they tell you this week when your next confirmation statement is due?
Could they explain which company changes need filing with Companies House?
Could they confirm who is responsible for your annual accounts and each company filing?
None of these is covered, so the next filing may still depend on a reminder arriving. The set-up review maps each duty and the person responsible.
Some duties are covered, although one unanswered question can still expose a missed change. The employment allowance example below shows why routine company checks should reach beyond the form.
Three yeses means your current accountant is covering the essentials well. The guides can help you check future changes as the company grows.
What wider company secretarial support catches earlier
Routine filing has value, although growing companies usually need questions answered between deadlines.
Routine filing support
Annual accounts prepared after the year closes.
Confirmation statement submitted when due.
Company changes filed when requested.
Questions handled one form at a time.
Support around each decision
Deadlines agreed before reminders arrive.
Company details checked before each filing.
Payroll and director pay raised during the review.
Future changes discussed before forms are submitted.
The company secretarial checklist directors often postpone
A yes to each question means the basic company duties have an owner.
- 01
Is the company structure suitable for how the business now operates?
Review it when directors, ownership or growth plans change.
- 02
Are the registered company details current?
Check them before each Companies House filing.
- 03
Is the next confirmation statement date known?
Agree who prepares and approves it.
- 04
Are the annual accounts already scheduled?
Set the responsibility before the deadline approaches.
- 05
Have all director changes been filed?
Update them when the change happens.
- 06
Has payroll been checked alongside director pay?
Review both before the year closes.
- 07
Does someone own each Companies House filing?
Give every filing a named person and due date.
- 08
Will your accountant raise wider company issues?
Each filing should prompt the questions that affect what happens next.
Company secretarial work we can take over
The scope follows what your company needs now and what is due next.
Company formation with early decisions considered
We form the limited company and raise the payroll, director pay and filing questions that follow.
Confirmation statements kept on schedule
We prepare the filing from current company details and flag anything needing attention.
Company updates filed when they happen
Director and company detail changes are dealt with before the public information becomes outdated.

Who this service is built to support
Sole traders, partnerships and LLPs sit outside this service.
Companies below the firm’s turnover threshold sit outside this service.
Startups seeking investor introductions are outside the firm’s remit.
Corner shops, takeaways, transport and haulage businesses are excluded.
If those points fit, the set-up review will show what needs filing and what can remain with your current accountant.
Questions directors ask before handing over company filings
What does the monthly fee for company secretarial support include?
The written proposal sets out the company filings and ongoing accountancy work included. Company secretarial support can cover confirmation statements, company changes and reminders around annual Companies House duties. The scope depends on what your company already has in place, and the fixed fee is agreed in writing before work starts.
Can Fiscal Umbrella handle company secretarial work if we already have an accountant?
Yes. We first establish which Companies House duties your current accountant covers and where responsibility sits. Some companies need help with one filing, while others want their accounts, corporation tax and company secretarial work with one firm. The recommendation follows the review, so responsibilities stay separate and nothing gets missed.
Do we have to move accounting software for company secretarial services?
A software move is only recommended when the current set-up makes the wider accounting work harder or less reliable. Company formation and Companies House filings can be discussed separately. If bookkeeping, payroll or VAT support is included, Fiscal Umbrella will explain any software change before it becomes part of the written proposal.
What happens with our current accountant if we switch?
Fiscal Umbrella contacts your current accountant, requests the accounts, tax filings and company details, then manages the handover. Existing deadlines are reviewed before anything moves. The free review comes first, followed by a fixed fee in writing, so each firm’s responsibilities are clear during the change.
What does Companies House need from a limited company each year?
A limited company normally needs annual accounts and a confirmation statement filed with Companies House. Changes during the year may also need filing, including updates to directors or company details. Fiscal Umbrella tracks the relevant duties, prepares the filings within the agreed scope and tells you what it needs from you.
Can Fiscal Umbrella form a limited company and handle the annual filings?
Yes. Fiscal Umbrella can handle company formation, then support the company with confirmation statements, annual accounts and other company changes. The first review also checks how the new company will handle payroll and director pay, because an incorporation decision can affect what needs attention later.
