Making Tax Digital for Income Tax: Stress-Free Compliance
Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax started on 6 April 2026 for self-employed people and landlords with qualifying income over £50,000. If that’s you, you now need to keep digital records and send HMRC an update every three months.
We handle everything: registration, software set-up, quarterly updates and your final declaration, so you can focus on your business.
Overview
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is HMRC’s new way of reporting income from self-employment and property. It is being introduced in stages from April 2026. You keep your records in MTD-compatible software, send HMRC a short update each quarter, and then finalise your tax for the year by 31 January, as you do now.
When does Making Tax Digital start for me?
It depends on your qualifying income: your total turnover from self-employment and property combined, before expenses (not your profit).
- Over £50,000: MTD started on 6 April 2026, based on your 2024/25 tax return.
- Over £30,000: MTD starts on 6 April 2027, based on your 2025/26 tax return.
- Over £20,000: MTD starts on 6 April 2028, based on your 2026/27 tax return.
For example, a sole trader with £35,000 of takings but only £15,000 of profit will still need to start in April 2027. Not sure where you stand? We will check for you.
