Making Tax Digital is mandatory from April 2026
HMRC requires sole traders with income over £50,000 to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates using compatible software from 6 April 2026. The threshold drops to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028.(Source: GOV.UK, January 2025)
