Making Tax Digital (MTD) – A Simple Guide for Your Business
What is Making Tax Digital (MTD)?
Making Tax Digital (MTD) is a UK government initiative from HMRC designed to modernise tax administration. Instead of paper records, businesses must use MTD-compatible software to keep digital records and submit tax returns online.
If you’re looking for a clear explanation of MTD and how it affects your business, our MTD accountants are here to guide you every step of the way.
Who Needs to Comply with MTD?
MTD compliance is mandatory for a growing number of businesses and individuals. You must follow HMRC digital tax filing rules if you are:
-
A VAT-registered business with taxable turnover above £85,000 (MTD for VAT).
-
A self-employed individual or landlord earning above the Income Tax threshold (MTD for Income Tax).
-
A business required to keep digital records for VAT, Income Tax, or Corporation Tax (as HMRC expands the rules).
Our MTD compliance services ensure you’re fully covered.
New MTD Rules You Need to Know
All VAT-registered businesses must now file VAT returns using MTD-compatible software.
From April 2026, self-employed individuals and landlords with income over £50,000 must join MTD for Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA).
Additional rules will apply in the coming years—making expert support more important than ever.
