- January to AprilDue 7 May
We'll remind you before each of these dates.
Sound like you?
- “What even is MTD?”
- “Show me how, I’ll do it”
- “Jargon? No thanks”
- “My books always slip”
- “I don’t want to do this alone”

MTD in plain English
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax sounds scary, but it boils down to three things.
-
Keep your records digitally
Note down the money coming in and going out of your business. A simple spreadsheet is fine.
-
Send HMRC an update every three months
Your records for the quarter are sent to HMRC through MTD-compatible software. If you use a spreadsheet, you upload the whole spreadsheet into bridging software, which sends your figures to HMRC. We'll show you how.
-
Make a final declaration after the year ends
Confirm your figures for the year. This replaces your old Self Assessment tax return. You can legally do it yourself, but we'd recommend asking an accountant to do it for you.
Does it apply to you? It already does if your income from self-employment and property is over £50,000. From April 2027 the limit drops to £30,000, and from April 2028 to £20,000.

Questions you might have
I don't know anything about finance. Is this really for me?
Yes. Making Tax Doable is designed for people who are new to all of this. We explain everything in plain English, and no question is too basic.
Do I need to buy accounting software?
Not necessarily. You can keep your records in a simple spreadsheet and send your updates using bridging software. We'll help you work out what's right for you.
What's a Submission Sprint?
In the run-up to each quarterly deadline, Starter and Support members get a series of reminders that break the job into small, manageable steps, so your update is ready in good time instead of at the last minute.
What's the difference between Starter and Support?
Starter gives you the WhatsApp community and the Submission Sprints. Support adds more direct help: email answers from our team, a monthly live co-bookkeeping power hour and regular live training.
I have a Limited Company. Can I join?
Making Tax Doable is for sole traders, as MTD for Income Tax doesn't apply to Limited Companies. Take a look at our Limited Company packages instead.
What if I'd rather someone did it all for me?
That's absolutely fine. Our sole trader packages can take your bookkeeping and MTD updates off your hands completely.
Let's make tax doable, together
