HMRC have worked closely with stakeholders in the business and tax communities on the design and scope of MTD for Income Tax to make sure it is fit for purpose. This has led to practical design changes and improvements that will benefit users.

HMRC will continue to provide guidance and communications to help small businesses, landlords and their agents prepare for this change.
