HMRC Pilot Scheme for Making Tax Digital: Should You Join?

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is the future of tax compliance in the UK, and HMRC’s pilot scheme for Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA) offers an early chance to get on board. Making Tax Digital for Income Tax will become mandatory in phases, starting from 6 April 2026.

At PML Accountants, we’re here to guide you through this important change.

What is the HMRC Pilot Scheme?

The pilot scheme allows self-employed individuals and landlords with qualifying income to voluntarily adopt MTD for ITSA before it becomes mandatory. Participants submit quarterly updates to HMRC using MTD-compliant software, providing greater transparency and control over tax obligations.
