Late payment on credit file

Is there any guidance or rules around companies reporting a late payment to the Credit Agencies? Can they do it when you are more than one day late, for example?
I’m only asking because I read on Equifax website that companies shouldn’t really be sharing the info unless you are more than 30 days late.
Thanks

Late is late.
If it is not on time, it is late. It really is that simple.
Anything else is a gesture of goodwill.0
