Features

Everything you need to stay ahead of every client filing deadline.

FilingKeeper does one job well: it works out every UK statutory deadline for each client, reminds your practice before they are due, and keeps proof of what you filed — all in one calm view.

HMRC Rules Auto-Calculated
Database hosted in UK

Automatic deadline generation

Add a client once — entity type, year-end, VAT stagger and obligations — and FilingKeeper builds a rolling 12-month schedule of every statutory date, exactly as HMRC and Companies House set it.

Risk Center & 'Fix Now' workflows

Identify urgent filings before penalties strike. Real-time statutory fine exposure calculation (£150 to £1,500+) with a direct action menu to chase records, upload proof, or clear blockers in one click.

Client document chasing via magic links

Stop spending hours sending manual chasing emails. Send branded document requests with automated multi-stage chasing (polite → firm → urgent). Clients upload records directly without logging in.

Reminders before it hurts

Automatic email reminders at 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before each deadline, in one daily digest to the whole practice. Nothing slips because someone was on leave or between systems.

Status your team can trust

Move each filing from not started, to in progress, to submitted — with who changed it and when. The whole practice can see what's done without asking.

Proof kept with the deadline

Attach the confirmation or receipt to the deadline it belongs to. When a client questions a filing months later, the evidence is one click away.

Built for a team

Assign work to staff, filter by teammate or client, and see the entire practice at a glance rather than relying on one senior person's memory.

Practice referral rewards

Share your dedicated referral code with colleagues or peer bookkeeping firms. They get an extra 30 days of trial when they sign up with your code, and when they track 3 clients you get a month as well.

Narrow, and safer for it

Names, dates and filing flags only — no financial figures, no HMRC logins. Less sensitive data means a smaller risk to carry for you and your clients.

Coverage

Every UK filing your clients face.

One national rule set covers limited companies, sole traders and partnerships. Dates are derived from each client's own year-end and obligations. See the full 2026 UK filing deadline calendar.

VAT returns & payments

Per stagger group or monthly, plus the Annual Accounting Scheme's return and interim payments.

Confirmation statements

14 days after each Companies House review period ends.

Annual accounts

Corporation Tax & CT600

PAYE & payroll

Monthly PAYE, plus P60 by 31 May and P11D by 6 July.

Where it fits

It works alongside the software you file with.

HMRC requires MTD-compatible software — or bridging software for spreadsheets — to submit VAT returns and Making Tax Digital for Income Tax updates. FilingKeeper is not that software, and never files for you. Keep filing where you file today; FilingKeeper makes sure every client's filing happens on time and keeps the proof afterwards. More on the difference in deadline tracker vs MTD software.

Your filing software

Submits the return to HMRC, from compatible software or a bridging tool.

FilingKeeper

Works out every client's statutory dates, ranks what is at risk, and reminds the practice before anything is late.

Your practice

Reviews and files, then marks it submitted with the confirmation attached as proof.
