- From April 2026, those with qualifying income over £50,000 must keep digital records, use compatible software, and submit quarterly income and expense summaries to HMRC.
- Craig Ogilvie, Director of Making Tax Digital at HMRC, described this reform as the most impactful update to the Self Assessment system since it began in 1997, highlighting its benefits in saving time and reducing mistakes.
