Stay Compliant with Making Tax Digital from April 2026
HMRC’s Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self-Assessment (MTD ITSA) comes into effect from April 2026. This new legislation requires landlords and sole traders to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates to HMRC instead of filing a single annual tax return.
MCL Accountants provide a complete MTD ITSA solution to keep you fully compliant while reducing the stress and complexity of digital reporting.
✔ Digital record keeping setup: We help you move to approved digital software so your income and expenses are recorded correctly throughout the year.
✔ Quarterly submissions to HMRC: We prepare and file all required quarterly updates on your behalf to ensure you remain compliant at all times.
✔ End of Period Statement (EOPS): We complete your formal year-end process, reconcile your accounts and submit your EOPS accurately and on time.
✔ Final Declaration: We prepare and file your final annual declaration to confirm your total taxable income for the year.
✔ Ongoing support and reminders: We manage your deadlines; keep you updated on HMRC rules and provide support whenever you need it.
✔ Software guidance and training: We help you understand the digital tools, whether you prefer spreadsheets, cloud accounting software or app-based solutions.
