Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is getting closer.

If you’re self-employed or a landlord with qualifying income above £30,000 in the 2025/26 tax year, you’ll need to join MTD for Income Tax from 6 April 2027.

That means keeping digital records, using compatible software and sending quarterly updates to HMRC, followed by a final submission at the end of the tax year.

If you’re going to be affected, now is the time to review your bookkeeping and software rather than leaving it until 2027.

Buying a car through your business? Don’t assume the VAT is reclaimable.

For most owner-managed businesses, VAT on the purchase of a car cannot be reclaimed if the vehicle is available for private use – even if that private use is minimal.

There are exceptions, including certain taxis, driving school vehicles, cars held for resale and short-term hire vehicles.

A recent First Tier Tribunal case involving a luxury vehicle hire business also shows that the intended use of a vehicle when it was purchased can be important when considering VAT recovery.

Thinking about buying a car for your business? It’s worth getting advice before you commit.

Crypto investors: don’t forget HMRC

Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptoassets may feel very different from traditional investments, but the UK’s existing tax rules can still apply.

Selling crypto, swapping one cryptoasset for another, using crypto to buy goods or services, or gifting it to someone other than a spouse or civil partner can all have tax implications.

And it’s not just about selling for cash. Swapping Bitcoin for Ethereum can be a taxable event too.

With HMRC receiving increasing information from cryptoasset service providers, keeping accurate records and reporting taxable income and gains is more important than ever.

Company car? New HMRC advisory fuel rates apply from 1 September 2026.

The latest rates determine how much employers can reimburse employees for business mileage in company cars without creating a taxable benefit.

Employees using their own cars can continue to claim the approved mileage allowance rate of 55p per mile for the first 10,000 business miles, reducing to 25p thereafter.

Landlords, is your rental income fully declared?

HMRC is increasingly using information from third parties, including tenancy deposit schemes, to identify potential discrepancies between rental income declared on tax returns and the information it holds.

Some landlords are now receiving letters asking them to review their position.

If you receive one, don't ignore it.

HMRC may expect you to disclose any undeclared rental income, and failing to act could result in more serious consequences if HMRC later opens a compliance check.

It's also a good opportunity to check whether you have Capital Gains Tax obligations or whether you fall within Making Tax Digital for Income Tax.

👉 Read the full article on our website https://www.viewpointaccountants.co.uk/newsletters/september-2026-tax-newsletter or speak to us if you've received a letter from HMRC.

Joe hits the big 3-0! 🎈

Luckily for him, his birthday fell at the weekend, so we weren't mean and didn't make him celebrate from his desk! 😂 But he was back in the office to enjoy some balloons, birthday wishes and a bit of belated birthday fuss. 🎂🥳

Happy 30th, Joe! We hope you had a brilliant weekend!

The Viewpoint Fellowship…

Our monthly team day took us to White Dragon Activity Centre for some air gun and ai***ft shooting, with targets up to 10 metres away and a final challenge with the sniper ri**es.

There may even have been a little Lord of the Rings inspiration along the way… although we're not sure Legolas would have approved of the cardboard cut-out standing in for him!

A brilliant afternoon of trying something different, a bit of healthy competition and, most importantly, spending time together as a team.
