Making Tax Digital Accountants

From April 2026, Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax will become mandatory for many sole traders and landlords, but thousands are still unaware or unprepared for the change.

Now’s the time to get your finances ready for the digital tax era.

At Mollan & Co, we understand tax changes can be stressful. With more than 40 years of experience, we provide clear financial insight and personalised support with MTD, giving you complete peace of mind so you can focus on what you do best – running your business.

Read our practical guide to Making Tax Digital.

Who does Making Tax Digital apply to?

From April 6, 2026, Making Tax Digital becomes mandatory if your relevant income is over £50,000. From April 6, 2027, the income threshold will reduce to £30,000.

MTD applies if:

• You are a sole trader or landlord registered for Self Assessment,
• And you receive income from self-employment, property, or both,
• And your qualifying income exceeds the relevant threshold.

You will need to:

• Keep digital records of all your business and/or rental income and expenses.
• Use MTD-compatible accounting software, such as Xero, Coconut, or FreeAgent.
• Submit quarterly updates to HMRC and provide an End of Year summary.

UK businesses have been using MTD for VAT since April 2022.
