FAQ - Making Tax Digital

What is the biggest change to my taxes in a decade?

HMRC is changing how businesses submit tax information. It’s a new system called Making Tax Digital and could mean five tax submissions per year; a 400% increase on the annual return you do currently. But don’t worry, Countingup will take care of MTD effortlessly.

When is MTD happening?

In April 2019 VAT must be submitted quarterly via MTD using third party commercial software. HMRC intends that quarterly self assessment and corporation tax will follow from April 2020. Don’t leave being prepared to the last minute.

Can my accountant get access?
With lots of clients, your accountant may be grappling with:

  • Time lost to manually checking unwieldy spreadsheets and supporting records
  • A migration nightmare as MTD forces clients to adopt digital software
  • An increased administrative burden from quarterly MTD submissions
  • A shift in the profession from bookkeeper to trusted advisor
