Find better-fit accounting and tax planning leads

Search UK companies and business owners using financial, ownership, compliance and incorporation data to uncover prospects that may need accounting, tax planning, restructuring or advisory support.

  • Overdue accounts and filings

    Find companies with overdue annual accounts or confirmation statements that may need urgent accounting, filing or compliance support.

  • Multiple companies without a group structure

    Identify owners with several active or successful companies but no obvious holding company, creating opportunities for group restructuring, tax planning and ongoing advisory work.

  • Family investment company opportunities

    Find owners of asset-rich companies who share a surname, helping you identify potential family-owned groups that may benefit from succession planning, wealth preservation or a family investment company structure.

  • Advanced company and financial filters

    Build highly targeted prospect lists using financial strength, cash at bank, location, industry, number of owners, employees, incorporation date and many other powerful filters.

  • Compliance and verification gaps

    Spot companies with no apparent ICO registration, missing or lapsed AML registration where applicable, or directors who have not completed Companies House identity verification.

  • Newly incorporated businesses

    Search newly launched UK companies by industry and location, then connect with their owners through LinkedIn on the same day the business is incorporated.

  • Company contact details

    Use our company contact lookup tool to find available telephone numbers, email addresses, websites and social media profiles for more informed prospecting.

  • Newly launched property SPVs

    Find existing business owners who incorporate a new property SPV and approach them at the earliest stage, before they have chosen an accountant or tax adviser.

  • Export targeted prospect lists

    Export selected company and director data to CSV for prospecting, CRM uploads, campaign planning and internal business development research.

Questions accountants ask us

What accountants, tax advisers and practice managers usually want to know before they start searching for new clients with FormationData.

Who is FormationData designed for within an accountancy practice?

FormationData is built for accountants, tax advisers, partners, practice managers and business development teams looking to win better-fit clients and uncover new advisory opportunities.

Use the platform to build targeted prospect lists, identify companies that may need a new accountant, and find tax planning, restructuring and succession opportunities within your local area or existing client base.

Where does FormationData get its company information?

FormationData brings together information from trusted UK public sources, including Companies House and other official public registers.

We organise millions of individual records into one searchable platform, making it easier to research UK companies, directors, financials, filing histories, ownership structures and potential compliance issues without checking multiple databases manually.

Can I find companies with overdue accounts near me?

Yes. You can search for companies with overdue accounts or confirmation statements by postcode or town.

You can then narrow the results using filters such as industry, company age, number of employees, financial position, ownership structure and other criteria to create a more relevant list of accounting prospects.

Can I export my search results?

Yes. Search results can be exported to CSV, allowing you to review prospects, organise outreach and add relevant companies to your existing sales or practice-management process.

Export allowances vary by subscription, with higher plans providing increased or unlimited exports.

Do I need to sign a long-term contract?

No. Our monthly subscriptions have no long-term contract, so you can cancel whenever you like.

You can sign up online and start searching for accounting and tax planning opportunities immediately, without waiting for a lengthy onboarding process or sales demonstration.

How current is the company information?

FormationData is regularly refreshed using the latest information available from its original public sources.

Update frequency varies by dataset, but many company records and filing changes are processed daily. Where appropriate, we also display filing dates and other timestamps so you can judge how recent the information is before acting on it.
