Frequently Asked Questions – Making Tax Digital

What is Making Tax Digital (MTD)?

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is a government initiative introduced by HMRC that requires many businesses and individuals to keep their tax records in digital format and submit their tax information using approved accounting software instead of paper records or manual filing. The aim is to make tax reporting more accurate and efficient.

Who does Making Tax Digital apply to?

Making Tax Digital currently applies to VAT-registered businesses and is being extended to self-employed individuals and landlords under Making Tax Digital for Income Tax. If your income exceeds HMRC’s threshold, you may need to keep digital records and submit updates to HMRC using compatible software.

Z&Q Accountants Ltd can help you check whether MTD applies to you and make sure you are fully prepared.

Who needs to register for Making Tax Digital?

You may need to register for Making Tax Digital if:

• You are VAT registered and required to submit VAT returns using MTD

• You are self-employed and your income exceeds HMRC’s limits

• You are a landlord with rental income above the qualifying threshold

If you are unsure whether you need to register, Z&Q Accountants Ltd can review your situation and complete the registration for you.

Who is exempt from Making Tax Digital?

Some individuals and businesses may not need to follow Making Tax Digital rules if their income is below the required threshold or if they cannot use digital systems due to age, disability, religious reasons, or limited internet access. In most cases, exemptions must be approved by HMRC.

We can advise you if you qualify for an exemption and help you contact HMRC if needed.

Do I need software to comply with Making Tax Digital?

Yes. HMRC requires you to use approved accounting software to keep digital records and submit your tax information. Paper records alone are not enough to meet MTD rules, and spreadsheets usually need additional software to be compliant.

At Z&Q Accountants Ltd, we help clients set up the correct software, keep digital records, and submit returns to HMRC on time.

Yes. Z&Q Accountants Ltd provides full Making Tax Digital support for sole traders, landlords, CIS subcontractors, and limited companies. We can register you for MTD, set up software, keep your records, and submit returns to HMRC so you stay fully compliant.
