How We Identify Companies Under £632k Turnover
UK companies that qualify as micro-entities file simplified accounts under the micro-entity regime. To file as a micro-entity, a company must meet at least two of three criteria: turnover not exceeding £632,000; balance sheet total not exceeding £316,000; average employee count not exceeding 10. Companies that file micro-entity accounts are therefore confirmed - by their own statutory declaration - to have turnover below this threshold.
This makes the micro-entity accounts classification the most reliable public indicator that a company's annual revenue is below £632,000 - even though micro-entities are not required to disclose their actual turnover figure in the abbreviated accounts they file.
What £632,000 Means in Practice
At £632,000 turnover, a business is genuinely small but meaningfully established. It is typically past the pre-revenue phase, has some client relationships or product sales, and is making real purchasing decisions. Depending on the sector, this might represent a consulting practice with three to five regular clients, a small retail business with a physical location, or a technology company with a handful of annual software contracts.
The VAT registration threshold is currently £90,000 in rolling 12-month turnover. Companies in this under-£632k band that are above £90,000 will be VAT registered; those below will not. The micro-entity classification alone does not reveal whether a company is VAT registered.
Who Targets Companies Under £632k Turnover?
- Accountants and bookkeepers - micro-entity clients are the core market for small-practice accountants. These businesses need bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, and annual accounts at a price point suited to their size.
- Accounting software providers - simple cloud accounting tools are the right fit for businesses at this scale. The complexity and cost of enterprise ERP systems is inappropriate.
- Sole trader conversion services - many micro-entity founders were previously sole traders and are still evaluating whether the Ltd structure suits them.
- Business insurance brokers - micro businesses need basic liability cover but require affordable, simplified products suited to their scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many UK companies have turnover under £632,000?
Approximately 5,000 active UK companies are currently registered as micro-entities at Companies House - meaning their most recent accounts confirmed they meet the micro-entity criteria. Many more companies may be below this threshold but have not yet filed accounts, or chose to file in a larger accounts category.
Do companies under £632k turnover have to disclose their revenue?
No. Micro-entity accounts do not require disclosure of the profit and loss account, so actual revenue figures are not publicly available. What you know is that the company qualifies under the micro thresholds, implying turnover below £632,000. This is the most reliable public proxy available from Companies House data.
Is £632k the same as £1m? Why not use £1m as the threshold?
The £632,000 figure is the legal micro-entity turnover threshold set by the Companies Act 2006 (updated periodically). It corresponds to roughly half of the small company regime threshold. Companies genuinely below £632k turnover can be identified via the micro-entity accounts classification; companies between £632k and £1m do not have a comparable public indicator available from Companies House data.
Can a company below £632k turnover grow into a small company?
Yes. If a company exceeds two of the three micro thresholds in two consecutive years, it must upgrade to small company accounts. NewcoSignal tracks these transitions - see the growing companies page for businesses that have moved up from micro-entity to small company status.
