Digital Tax

Are you ready for Making Tax Digital?

If you are a VAT registered business (including self-employed persons and landlords with one or more UK properties), you are now required by HMRC to keep your bookkeeping and accounting records digitally, using compatible software and to submit these records electronically to HMRC. 

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax comes into force on 6 April 2026 and will apply to all self-employed persons and landlords with annual business or property income over £50,000. You will be required to keep digital records and submit electronic information quarterly to HMRC. In April 2027 the threshold is further reduced, so that this applies to landlords or self-employed persons with annual business or property income over £30,000.
