Making Tax Digital (MTD)

Making Tax Digital is HMRC’s initiative to modernise the UK tax system. It requires businesses and individuals to keep digital records and submit returns using approved software. At Barleyfields Accountancy, we guide you through every step to ensure you’re fully compliant and set up for success.

​

Whether you’re VAT-registered, self-employed, or preparing for the next MTD phase under Income Tax Self Assessment (ITSA), we help you adopt the right tools, understand your obligations, and avoid penalties.

​

Our MTD support includes:

​

      Reviewing your current record-keeping and software

      Setting you up with MTD-compatible software (Xero, FreeAgent)

      Registering you for MTD with HMRC

      Digital bookkeeping and quarterly updates (ITSA)

      Submission of VAT returns via MTD-compliant systems

      Ongoing advice to keep you compliant and confident

​

From setup to submission, we ensure you're using systems that are secure, efficient, and built for digital compliance. We tailor our support to your business whether you're new to MTD or looking to streamline your current processes.

With new MTD rules on the horizon (including quarterly ITSA updates from April 2026), it’s more important than ever to get prepared.
