Choose the right MTD Accountant

With Making Tax Digital for Income Tax coming in April 2026, to choose the right MTD accountant is more important now than ever.

Here’s how to find someone who will make the MTD journey smooth and stress-free.

How to choose the right MTD Accountant

Look for and MTD Accountant with Experience

Not all accountants are MTD-ready. Look for someone who:

Understands the software
Has already helped clients prepare
Can explain the new rules in plain English

Ask: “Have you helped other clients with MTD for VAT or ITSA?”

Check If they offer Software Support

A good accountant will help you:

Choose the right MTD-compatible software
Set it up correctly
Work with you to start using it (or do the bookkeeping for you)
Offer Support, Advice & Guidance going forward
Answer any questions or queries you may have about the software

Ask About Ongoing Support

MTD isn’t just one deadline—it’s quarterly updates, year-end filing, and record-keeping.

Make sure your accountant:

Offers regular check-ins
Reviews your updates before submission
Keeps you ahead of deadlines

Local Knowledge Can Help

A local accountant who knows your area (like Pembrokeshire!) can offer more tailored advice.

You’ll also find it easier to get in touch when you need help.

Consider Qualifications and Reviews

Check they’re properly qualified—look for AAT Licensed Accountants or FMAATs for example.

Read online reviews to see what other clients say about their service and reliability.
