What is Making Tax Digital?

It means that from the 1st April 2019, businesses with an income over the VAT threshold have to store, prepare and submit their tax records digitally.

Why is it being implemented?

It is considered a way of reducing the amount of time businesses spend on administrative duties; such as tax planning. Also, it aims to reduce the amount of businesses filling out VAT returns incorrectly.

What do you need to do?

As we are so close to the changeover date, HMRC have written to all businesses concerned with details of what they need to do and how they should go about it. However, as financial experts, The Kelvin Partnership will advise you on the business steps necessary to take, should you be completely under prepared. There’s no need to panic! It’s a relatively easy process; even if you aren’t familiar with MTD-compatible software.
