Find out which software packages support the Making Tax Digital pilot if you're an agent, or are self-employed.

Overview

If you sign up to the Making Tax Digital pilot you’ll need a software package that lets you send regular Income Tax updates to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).

If you’re an agent firm and you sign clients up to the pilot you’ll need one that lets you send these to HMRC on their behalf.

You’ll need this software to keep records of income and expenses, either for yourself or on behalf of your clients. If you’re already using software to keep records, check with your supplier when it will be ready to allow you to send updates to HMRC throughout the year.

Software suppliers

More suppliers and software will be available and added to this list as the Making Tax Digital pilot progresses:

Software supplier	Feature(s)	Business or Agent
IRIS	Digital record keeping Updates to HMRC Tax estimate from HMRC based on provided updates	Agent
Rhino	Digital record keeping Updates to HMRC Tax estimate from HMRC based on provided updates	Business

HMRC doesn’t recommend or endorse any one product or software supplier and isn’t responsible for any problems you have with software.
