Before you hit submit on your MTD quarterly update, do one last check of your records.

Make sure your income and expenses are complete, your bank transactions have been reconciled, and nothing looks out of place.

A few minutes spent checking now can save you from correcting mistakes later.

Run a shop, café, restaurant, salon, or another qualifying retail, hospitality, or leisure business?

From April 2027, the Small Business Rates Relief thresholds will rise for qualifying properties in England, meaning more businesses could pay no business rates at all.

It’s worth checking how the changes could affect your 2027 costs and budgets.

The National Living Wage will increase to £13.21 per hour, while the rate for 18 to 20-year-olds will rise to £11.27 in April 2027.

For employers, that means more than updating payroll.

Higher wage costs can affect cash flow, pricing and your overall budget, so it pays to plan ahead.

Could large Self Assessment tax payments look a little different in the future?

From April 2029, taxpayers who already make Payments on Account are expected to pay smaller amounts more regularly throughout the year.

That makes it even more useful to track your income, expenses, and likely tax position throughout the year.

Good bookkeeping helps you see what’s coming before a payment is due.

From April 2029, VAT invoices must be issued in a specified electronic format.

There is still plenty of time to prepare, but this is another sign that business tax records are becoming increasingly digital.

If you still rely heavily on paper or manual processes for invoicing and bookkeeping, now is a good time to start planning ahead.

Sell through an online marketplace?

From October 2027, marketplaces will be responsible for collecting VAT on certain sales made by UK businesses.

That makes accurate records of your sales, fees, refunds and VAT more important than ever.

The amount paid into your bank account doesn’t always show the full picture of what you’ve sold.

Drive your own car or van for work?

Starting in April 2027, the tax-free mileage rate will be 55p for the first 10,000 business miles, then 35p for each qualifying mile above that.

Good news if you spend plenty of time on the road.

Just remember, accurate mileage records matter. Keep track of your journeys, dates and business purpose as you go.

Good news. If you are joining MTD for Income Tax in April 2027, you will not receive penalty points for late submission of your first four quarterly updates during 2027/28.

That first-year easement is designed to give new users time to get used to the system.

Now the important bit.

MTD still applies, and the thresholds are continuing to fall:

• Over £50,000 qualifying income? MTD has applied since April 2026.
• Over £30,000? You will need to use MTD from April 2027.
• Over £20,000? You will join from April 2028.

If you are already using MTD from April 2026, your first-year easement ends in April 2027, so the normal penalty points system will then apply.

Whichever threshold applies to you, keeping your bookkeeping up to date will make MTD much easier to manage.

MTD is getting bigger.

Around 1.07 million more people fall within the £30,000 to £50,000 income band relevant to the April 2027 expansion of Making Tax Digital for Income Tax.

If that applies to you, now is the time to understand what will be expected and to start preparing.

Haven’t signed up for Making Tax Digital yet? HMRC could do it for you.

From September, HMRC will begin automatically signing up some eligible sole traders and landlords who should already be using MTD.

But being signed up doesn’t mean the work is done. You’ll still need compatible software, digital records and any outstanding quarterly updates submitted.

Our latest blog explains what’s happening and what you need to do next.

That’s a lot of people potentially falling behind with MTD. 😵‍💫

If you should be using Making Tax Digital but haven’t registered yet, you are non-compliant, even during the 2026/27 soft landing period.

There’s still time to get back on track before your next quarterly update.

The first MTD deadline has passed. So, where do you stand?

If you signed up and submitted your first quarterly update, great. Now is the time to keep your digital records up to date and prepare for the next deadline on 7 November.

If you should be using MTD but haven’t signed up and submitted, you are currently non-compliant.

There are no late submission penalty points for quarterly updates during the 2026/27 soft landing period, but you still need to meet your MTD obligations.

⏰ Only one week left until the first Making Tax Digital quarterly update deadline!

Those who are ready to submit can do so at any time now.

Don’t wait until the last minute, as you might end up non-compliant. It’s a good idea to start developing this habit now, especially with penalties set to be introduced in April 2027.
