<p>There are now over 340,000 businesses in the MTD for VAT service, and over 200,000
VAT returns have been successfully submitted. Businesses need to use the MTD service
for their first VAT return period starting on or after 1 April, so for the majority,
who file quarterly, their first VAT return through MTD will not be due until 7 August
at the earliest.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC has published a statement of impacts for the Making
Tax Digital for Business programme, which is available at the following link:</p><p>
