‼️New MTD rules are already in place — check whether the new tax system applies to you‼️

📍MTD Income Thresholds
The requirement to join MTD is being phased in based on your annual gross qualifying income:

From April 2026: If your gross income is over £50,000.
From April 2027: If your gross income is over £30,000.
From April 2028: If your gross income is over £20,000.

📍Combined Sources: If you have both a sole trader business and rental properties, HMRC adds together the gross income from both to check against the threshold.

📍Expenses are Ignored: Even if your business has high costs and very low net profit, you must still join MTD if your total sales/rent (gross) exceeds the limit.

📍Excluded Income: Salaries from employment (PAYE), dividends, and pensions do not counttowards the MTD threshold.

📍Joint Property: Only your individual share of gross rental income from jointly owned property is included in your calculation.

Thinking of starting a business? One of the first things to consider is whether to operate as a Sole Trader or set up a Limited Company (LTD).

Both options have their pros and cons, and the right choice depends on your circumstances and future plans.

As a Sole Trader, the setup is simple and reporting is usually more straightforward. However, you are personally responsible for the business, which means any debts or liabilities are yours personally.

With a Limited Company, the business becomes a separate legal entity. This can offer some protection for your personal assets, and in some cases it can also be more tax efficient. However, it does come with additional responsibilities, such as filing annual accounts, confirmation statements, and maintaining proper company records.

Other things to think about include:
• Different tax rates and how profits are taxed
• Reporting and compliance requirements
• Your level of personal liability
• How you plan to grow the business in the future

Every situation is different, and choosing the right structure at the start can make a big difference in the long run.

We offer financial consultations for new businesses, where we review your plans, expected income, tax implications, and legal structure options to help you make the right decision from the beginning.

Selling your buy-to-let property in the UK? 🏡

Don’t forget, you may need to report and pay Capital Gains Tax within 60 days of completion.

The good news? You can usually deduct certain costs, such as:
✔️ Purchase and sale legal fees
✔️ Estate agent fees
✔️ Stamp Duty paid on purchase
✔️ Capital improvement costs (e.g. extensions, major renovations and not routine repairs)

Understanding what’s deductible can significantly reduce your tax bill. If you’re planning a sale, make sure your figures are reviewed before submission.

Please feel free to ask TaxDot Accounting services if you have any questions!
