Statutory accounts, current company address, or one that was correct at EOY?

Statutory accounts, current company address, or...

Didn't find your answer?

Hi,

When preparing the report/accounts for a company, on the "Company Information" sheet should the address be the one that is currently the registered address (as of when the accounts were prepared) or the one that was correct at the end-of-year that is relevant to the accounts.

I am assuming the former, but it occurs to me that there are some circumstances that it might make sense to give the details correct at the end of year.

Cheers,

Tom

I would put current address at the date of signing.
would put current address at the date of signing as it's additonal information for the user and is not required.

Address current at the signing date

I am sure the address should be that which is current at the date of signing the accounts - assuming they are then filed shortly after with no further changes.

Don't have any statutory references to hand though..

Unnecessary

So far as I am aware the "company information" sheet is totally unnecessary and not required by the Companies Act.    Same goes for the contents page.    Ditch them both (unless a PLC or got any viewers of the accounts who might value this "useful" information).

Events after the reporting period

You would put the address in use at the date of signing the accounts as previous members have mentioned.
