Making Tax Digital (MTD) is the Government’s flagship initiative to modernise the UK tax system.

If you’re a sole trader or a landlord (partnerships are not included at this time), MTD for Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA) could soon apply to you.

From April 2026, if your turnover from your sole trader or property exceeds £50,000, you’ll need to comply with new digital reporting requirements.

The threshold reduces to £30,000 in 2027 and then to £20,000 in 2028 – so even if you are not affected yet, you soon could be.

HMRC are in the process of contacting affected taxpayers, but don’t wait for a letter to get ready.
