Service Overview
What is Making Tax Digital (MTD)?
Making Tax Digital is a key part of the UK government’s 10-year strategy to modernise the tax system. It requires businesses and individuals to maintain digital records and use HMRC-compatible software to submit tax returns.
At AcumenAGC, we simplify this transition. We don’t just file your returns; we set up the digital infrastructure required by HMRC, ensuring your financial data is accurate, real-time, and securely stored. From MTD for VAT to the upcoming MTD for Income Tax Self-Assessment (ITSA), we ensure your business meets every regulatory milestone ahead of time.
At AcumenAGC, we provide a proactive Tax Investigation and Appeal service. We don’t just crunch numbers; we interpret the nuances of the Taxes Management Act 1970 to defend your position. Our goal is to close the enquiry quickly, ensuring full compliance with Companies House and HMRC standards while protecting your financial interests.

FAQ
Making Tax Digital: Frequently Asked Questions
Is MTD mandatory for all UK businesses?
Currently, MTD is mandatory for all VAT-registered businesses. Starting April 2026, it will become mandatory for self-employed individuals and landlords with an income over £50,000.
Can I still use spreadsheets for MTD?
You can use spreadsheets, but they must be “digitally linked” to HMRC via bridging software. At AcumenAGC, we recommend moving to cloud accounting for better long-term efficiency.
What are the penalties for MTD non-compliance?
HMRC uses a points-based penalty system for late submissions and late payments. Consistent failure to maintain digital records can lead to significant financial penalties.
Do I need a London accountant for MTD?
While we are a leading MTD firm in London, cloud accounting allows us to support clients throughout the UK seamlessly.
How do I sign up for MTD?
You must sign up via the HMRC website, but we recommend having your accountant do this to ensure your digital links are correctly established first.
