Yes. But if the account holder has been in good standing and tis is the first late payment, it probably won't be reported.

4 days late can legally be reported as "past due" on your credit report, but this is unlikely. The account cannot be reported as 30 days late unless it is ACTUALLY 30-59 days past due.

Each creditor is different. Some report from last pay date, some report from last due date.

What happens to your credit report if you have a late payment and finance charge?

Maybe nothing. It depends upon whether the credit card company reported the delinquent activity to the credit bureaus. If it was a one-time issue (and otherwise you're always on time with your payments) you can contact the credit company to ask that they waive the late payment fee as a customer courtesy, just explain it was an oversight on your part and won't happen again. You can also ask if they reported the missed payment to the credit bureaus, or run your credit report to find out yourself.
