UK Tax Office Contacts Workers About New Tax Rule

People who do their own taxes must follow the new rule.

The UK tax office is telling people about a new tax rule that started in April and will affect more people over time.

The tax office sent an email about Making Tax Digital. It's a new way for self-employed people and those with property income to do their taxes. Instead of one tax return at the end of the year, people will use a new platform to send in quarterly reports and a year-end report.

People must use special software to follow the new tax rule. The tax office said in an email that the new rule is being introduced slowly.

People who earned more than £50,000 in the 2024/25 tax year don't have to use the new system yet. From April 2027, those who earned more than £30,000 in the 2025/26 tax year will have to start using it.

People who earned more than £20,000 in 2026/27 will have to use the new system from April 2028.

Tax rules are changing.

The tax office is holding online meetings to help landlords and businesses get ready for the new tax rule. Businesses can sign up for the meeting online.

People who get income from property can sign up for a meeting to learn about the new tax rule. The meetings will cover what people need to do, how to choose the right software, and how to register for the new system.
