Why landlords should check their MTD readiness now?
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is an important change for UK landlords. Instead of relying only on year-end tax records, landlords may need to keep digital records and submit updates through compatible software.
This can feel confusing at first, especially if your rental income, self-employment income or bookkeeping records are not clearly organised. Therefore, it is better to check your position early.
Our Landlord MTD Readiness Checklist gives you a practical starting point. It helps you think about your records, software, deadlines and support. It does not replace tailored advice, but it helps you understand what to ask next.
