Making Tax Digital for Income Tax started on 6 April 2026. If you are a sole trader or landlord and your qualifying income, the total of your self-employment and property income before expenses, is over £50,000, you must now keep digital records and send HMRC a summary every quarter. From April 2027 the threshold drops to £30,000.

We keep your records digitally, send your quarterly updates to HMRC and complete the final return at the end of the year, the same way we already handle VAT returns for our clients.
