Making Tax Digital

What is MTD for Income Tax?
Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax will be a fundamental change to the Self
Assessment Income Tax system taking effect from 6 April 2026. Initially it will mean
individuals with over £50,000 in combined self-employment and/or rental income
must:
• Keep digital records (software or Excel)
• Submit quarterly updates to HMRC
• File an End of Period Statement and Final Declaration annually (replacing the
Self Assessment return)
Who does it apply to?
You will need to follow MTD for Income Tax if:
• Your combined self-employment and/or property income exceeds £50,000 per
year
It does not apply to:
• People with no self-employment or rental income
• Those earning under the £50,000 threshold
• Limited companies, partnerships, or trusts (yet)
The £50,000 threshold is based on your total gross income (pre expenses), not
profit.
When does it start?
The rules take effect from 6 April 2026, covering the 2026/27 tax year and beyond.
What are the key requirements?
You’ll need to:
1. Submit income and expense updates every quarter to HMRC
2. File an End of Period Statement after the tax year ends
3. Make a Final Declaration to confirm your total taxable income
Quarterly updates are due by the 7th of the month following the quarter-end.

Let us take this stress away, we can either maintain and file your returns, or set you up with Xero , giving you the relevant training and support  for you to file your own returns , saving you money.
