Before submitting your return, it is important to ensure that the accounting period dates entered within the filing template accurately match the dates shown on the Companies House website. Even a minor discrepancy in dates can cause your submission to be rejected or flagged as incorrect.

You can verify your company's accounting period dates by searching for your company on the official Companies House public register using the link below. Once you have located your company, navigate to the overview section and confirm that the start and end dates of the accounting period align exactly with what has been entered in the template.
