<p>The Government is committed to ensuring that businesses within scope of Making
Tax Digital (MTD) understand the impact it will have on their business. All taxpayers
within scope of MTD will receive direct contact from HMRC in advance of mandation
outlining the changes and explaining how to comply.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC engage extensively
with taxpayers, agents, and representative bodies to raise awareness of MTD through
stakeholder forums, public events, webinars, social media, and publishing information
and guidance on GOV.UK.</p><p> </p><p>MTD does not change the amount of tax a business
has to pay, but rather when and how it reports tax information to HMRC. Two independent
research studies commissioned by HMRC have found that small businesses that had joined
MTD for VAT with fully integrated software reported spending less time on their tax
and making fewer errors.</p>
