What is Making Tax Digital?
1. Digital Record Keeping with Cowie & Co
At Cowie & Co Accountants, we understand that keeping accurate, up-to-date records is the foundation of good tax management. Making Tax Digital requires you to maintain your income and expenses using HMRC-approved digital software. We guide you through setting up and using simple, reliable digital tools tailored to your business needs, ensuring your financial data is organised, secure, and ready for seamless tax reporting at any time.
2. Quarterly Updates for Peace of Mind
Gone are the days of scrambling to prepare an annual tax return. We help you stay compliant by supporting your quarterly updates to HMRC, giving you a clear and ongoing picture of your tax position throughout the year. These regular checkpoints with HMRC ease the stress of tax time, help manage your cash flow better, and reduce risks of costly mistakes or late submissions.
3. Final Year-End Declaration – The Finish Line
When the tax year ends, Cowie & Co will carefully consolidate your quarterly updates into a final declaration to HMRC. This confirms your full tax liability or any refund due, with total confidence that your figures are accurate and HMRC-compliant. Our expert team will ensure the submission process is smooth and hassle-free, letting you focus on what matters most—growing your business.

Cowie & Co’s Approach to Making Tax Digital
1. Preparing for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (April 2026)
Cowie & Co is ready to assist self-employed clients and landlords with qualifying income above £50,000 in meeting the new digital tax requirements coming into effect in April 2026. This includes guidance on maintaining digital records of income and expenses, using HMRC-approved software, and submitting quarterly updates to HMRC. Early preparation with Cowie & Co ensures a smooth transition into MTD for Income Tax Self Assessment, reducing stress and avoiding penalties.
2. Corporation Tax and MTD: Current Position
While earlier plans indicated MTD would be extended to Corporation Tax for companies, HMRC has recently scrapped this requirement for now. Cowie & Co will continue to monitor any future developments, but companies currently do not need to comply with MTD for Corporation Tax. Cowie & Co will support clients’ corporation tax compliance under existing processes, ensuring accuracy and compliance without the need for digital transition in this area at present.
3. Ongoing Support and Digital Tax Compliance
Moving to Making Tax Digital is a significant change in the UK tax landscape, and Cowie & Co is committed to supporting clients throughout this journey. From software setup and record keeping to filing and ongoing advice, Cowie & Co provides expert support to help clients stay compliant, optimise tax management, and confidently navigate HMRC’s evolving digital requirements.
At Cowie and Co Accountants, we are committed to providing personalized and proactive tax return services. We understand the importance of accurate and timely tax compliance, and we strive to build long-lasting relationships with our clients based on trust, expertise, and exceptional service.
