Landlords - Changes to income reporting - MTD 2025

Making Tax Digital (MTD) for income tax will be mandated for a large group of self-assessment taxpayers from 6 April 2026, with even more individuals being mandated in 2027 and 2028.

If your combined turnover from a property or sole trade business was over £50,000 in the 2024/25 tax year, you will likely be required to comply with the MTD for income tax rules from 6 April 2026.

Reports from recent surveys indicate that many landlords are not confident that they understand the requirements of MTD for income tax. Many are concerned or worried about the changes.

If you are one of those landlords, do not worry! We can help you switch to MTD-compatible software to meet the new reporting requirements.

Over the past year, we have successfully helped many of our clients prepare for MTD. If you would like to discuss how you can meet the new requirements, please speak to us – we are happy to help!
