HMRC is rolling out Making Tax Digital for Income Tax — and if you’re a sole trader earning over £30,000, these changes are coming your way.
Starting from April 2026 for those over £50,000 turnover, and from April 2027 for those over £30,000 turnover, you'll need to start filing quarterly income and expense updates using HMRC-approved software.
โ What this means for you:
-
Quarterly income and expenses submissions
-
A final year-end statement (replacing your self-assessment)
-
Software required for record keeping and submissions
To help you fully understand what’s changing, I’ve prepared a simple, no-nonsense fact sheet which breaks it all down.
