HMRC updates MTD guidance for tax agents
HMRC has updated the Making Tax Digital section of its Tax Agents Handbook. The page is aimed at accountants and tax agents, but if you use an agent to handle your tax affairs it is worth knowing that their guidance has been refreshed.
The source summary does not set out specific new rules or deadlines, so there is no immediate action required on your part. If you have an accountant or bookkeeper, they will be working from this updated guidance when advising you on MTD.
If you are a sole trader, landlord, or small business owner in Sandwich or East Kent and you are unsure whether MTD applies to you or when you need to sign up, it is a good time to check with your agent or get in touch with us for local support.
