Buy the full version — $60You enter six things: the company's next confirmation statement date, today's date, how many directors and how many PSC-only people still have no Companies House personal code, that PSC's month of birth, and the company's filing offences in five years. It returns nine answers, including both deadlines, days remaining, people at risk and the penalty exposure in pounds.
UK accountants, company secretaries and bookkeepers who file confirmation statements for client limited companies, and sole directors of their own company. If you file a CS01 for anyone, the personal code rule lands on you before it lands on the director.
Ask an assistant when your deadline is and it usually answers 18 November 2026, because that is the date in every headline. That date is the end of the transition period, not your date. Your date is your confirmation statement date, which for most companies falls months earlier, and no chatbot knows yours.
Every calculation is free and unlimited: deadlines, days remaining, filing status and penalty exposure, for as many companies as you like, with nothing sent anywhere. The 60 dollar key adds two things on a different axis: a .csv export of every company you have checked, and browser alarms before each saved deadline.
UK company secretarial packages that carry this deadline for you are advertised between 140 and 499 pounds per company per year, and the online confirmation statement fee itself rises to 50 pounds from 1 February 2026. A missed verification is a criminal offence with financial penalties published at 250 to 2,000 pounds.
