What is MTD for landlords?

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is HMRC’s programme requiring landlords to keep digital records and send quarterly updates for Income Tax via approved software. It becomes mandatory in phases based on your gross income:

  • Over £50,000: from 6 April 2026
  • £30,000 – £50,000: from 6 April 2027
  • £20,000 – £30,000: expected from 6 April 2028 (subject to confirmation)

After your quarterly updates, you’ll complete an End of Period Statement (EOPS) and a Final Declaration each tax year.

Who needs to comply?

You’re likely in scope if you have property income and your total gross income from self-employment and/or property crosses the thresholds above — including joint owners. Partnerships and special cases have different timings. Not sure if you’re in? We’ll check eligibility for you.
