Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT makes it mandatory for VAT-registered businesses above the £85k threshold to keep records and submit VAT returns digitally using compatible software. HMRC lists a number of accounting software packages that are compatible with MTD for VAT. This came into affect in April 2019.

 

MTD is an HMRC initiative designed to make sure the UK tax system is effective, efficient and easier for taxpayers.
