Working out your dates…

How each date is worked out

RMAR: 30 business days after the end of each six-month period, which ends on your year end and six months before it.
Complaints return: until the end of 2026, on the same periods as the RMAR. From 2027, 30 business days after 30 June and 31 December for every firm.
Firm Details Attestation: 60 business days after your year end.
Consumer Duty board report: 31 July, the date of the first reports, which most firms have kept. Your board can set a different date.
REP008: 31 October, covering the year to 31 August. Only due if there's something to report.
Annual accounts: 9 months after your year end, for a private limited company that isn't filing its first accounts.
Corporation tax payment: 9 months and 1 day after your year end, unless you pay in quarterly instalments.
Company tax return (CT600): 12 months after your year end.

Business days and bank holidays

A business day is any day that isn't a Saturday, Sunday or bank holiday. The calculator counts from the day after the period ends and skips bank holidays in England and Wales, using the dates published on GOV.UK. Dates marked est. fall after the last published bank holidays, so a holiday announced later could move them a day or two.

Companies House and HMRC deadlines don't move for weekends or bank holidays. File early if one falls on a non-working day.

Deadlines the calculator can't date

These depend on a date only your firm has, so they aren't in the list above.

FCA annual fees: due 30 days after the invoice date. Invoices usually arrive between July and September.
SM&CR certification: at least once a year, on the date your firm runs it.
PI insurance renewal: your policy renewal date.
ICO data protection fee: the anniversary of your registration.
Confirmation statement: within 14 days of your review date, shown on your Companies House page.

From 1 January 2027 every firm reports complaints for January to June and July to December, each due within 30 business days, so in mid-August and mid-February.
