Making Tax Digital 2026: What HMRC Isn’t Explaining Clearly

From April 2026, Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax will fundamentally change how self-employed individuals and landlords report to HMRC. If your gross income exceeds £50,000 — or will soon approach £30,000 — quarterly digital reporting will become mandatory. Many business owners assume profit determines eligibility. It does not. If your business generates £55,000 in income but only £20,000 in profit, you are still within scope. If you earn £35,000 from consultancy and £20,000 from rental income, those figures are combined. The threshold is based on gross income — not what you take home. This reform increases reporting frequency, visibility, and exposure to penalties under HMRC’s points-based system.
