Making Tax Digital

So what actually is MTD?

HMRC is changing the rules for self-employed people. Here's what you need to know.

📅
From April 2026
Sole traders earning over £50,000 must keep digital records and report quarterly to HMRC.
📅
From April 2027
Extended to sole traders earning over £30,000. The threshold is expected to fall further after that.
👥
Who it affects
