star this property answer text <p>Making Tax Digital (MTD) does not require expensive software or services to run. Lots of businesses already using modern, cloud-based accounting software saw their software upgraded for MTD free of charge. There are free software products suitable for smaller, simpler businesses, while subscription based software starts from around £10 a month.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC wants to ensure that MTD is straightforward, and businesses feel supported throughout. Those businesses needing help can find extensive support to help them digitally engage on the GOV.UK Website here: <a href="http://www.gov.uk/guidance/help-and-support-for-making-tax-digital" target="_blank"><em>www.gov.uk/guidance/help-and-support-for-making-tax-digital</em></a><em>.</em></p><p> </p><p>Independent research has confirmed that many businesses have already seen how digitisation benefits their business. The Enterprise research centre concluded that many businesses who use software to manage their accounts have over 10 per cent higher productivity.</p><p> </p><p>From the start, the government has been clear that businesses which genuinely cannot operate MTD will not be required to do so. Details on how to claim exemption are available on the GOV.UK website.</p>
