HMRC has commenced sending letters on Making Tax Digital (MTD) for income tax to agents it believes will have clients mandated to meet the requirements of MTD when it commences from April 2026 for unincorporated sole trade businesses and landlords with turnover exceeding £50,000. The letters will be followed by targeted letters to the same agent’s potentially mandated clients. This is part of a wider comms plan to raise awareness of MTD. The agent letters are available here and the client letters are available here.
HMRC is also starting to host webinars on MTD for income tax. The webinar on 25 March 2025 is already full but there is availability for the next webinar on 3 April 2025. These are the first in a series of three webinars aimed at agents. The webinar on 3 April will focus on how to get ready and sign up for MTD income tax.
HMRC has also added an additional software provider, IRIS accountancy suite, to the list of software products currently available for taxpayers who have volunteered to test MTD for income tax. This brings the total number of software products to 18.
