Ask the Expert: Making Tax Digital is here. What does it mean for you? By Simon Boxall, Personal Tax Director
Making Tax Digital (MTD) is no longer coming soon – it’s here. The first phase of MTD for Income Tax is underway, with quarterly submissions already being made by self‑employed individuals and landlords earning over £50,000. Thresholds will drop to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028, bringing many more people into the rules.
In our latest article, we explain what MTD means in practice, who it affects, and the three questions we’re hearing most often: whether you can wait to act, how it applies to smaller landlords, and whether you need new software. We also share why preparing early can improve your record‑keeping, cash‑flow visibility and year‑end planning – not just your compliance.
