Making Tax Digital software

Clear Books is HMRC recognised Making Tax Digital software.

Making Tax Digital is around the corner!

From April 2019, HMRC will kick off their plan to digitise the UK's tax system. Known as Making Tax Digital (MTD) it will be compulsory for VAT-registered businesses with a taxable turnover of more than £90,000 to submit their VAT returns digitally to HMRC every quarter.

Once these changes come into effect, you'll no longer be able to manually enter your VAT return via the existing HMRC portal. Instead, you'll have to use recognised software to submit the return for you.

Clear Books is HMRC recognised MTD software. We have already completed live VAT returns as part of the Government's pilot programme and are experts at managing the change.
