Whether you run a small business or a large corporate organisation you have to give consideration to your computer network. Like all pieces of capital expenditure which depreciate over time, you have to maintain the asset, ensuring that it is fit for purpose and that takes skilled resource. You can, of course have the expense of replacing equipment on a regular basis to ensure that failures are minimised, or you have an alternative…

EMiR Maintenance contracts come in 3 flavours: Bronze, Silver and Gold. They all provide excellent value for money and ensure you are able to add any of the newly developed features for EMiR to your system for a flat fee - so you never need to go through a formal 'upgrade' process again. Simply put, your system is always up-to-date with the best functionality EMiR has to offer!

Your Guide to Making Tax Digital

Making Tax Digital is a HMRC initiative for tax administration. Find out more in this guide!

What is Making Tax Digital?

Making Tax Digital is designed to make tax administration more effective, more efficient and easier for businesses and individuals. Find out more about the initiative and how to register here.HMRC is gradually going paperless using the Making Tax Digital initiative. This involves keeping digital rather than paper records by making use of compatible software to complete tax returns.

Is it Compulsory?

The first phase was the introduction of Making Tax Digital for VAT. Since the 1^st of April 2019, VAT-registered businesses with a taxable turnover above the VAT threshold of £85,000 were required to register for the initiative. If your business does not exceed the threshold, then Making Tax Digital is not yet compulsory for you, but the government advises that you sign-up now to get used to the system. In April 2020 (at the earliest), HMRC will begin implementing Making Tax Digital for other forms of tax such as Income and Corporation tax.

What Needs to be Retained?

The digital records that need to be retained include:

Information about your business including your business name and principal business address
Your businesses’ VAT registration number and details of any VAT accounting schemes you use
The time of supply, the value of supply (net excluding VAT) and the rate of VAT charged for each supply

How do I Complete a Return?

You need to use compatible software such as EMiR to complete your returns. Our software is HMRC recognised so you can complete your returns through the EMiR Finance module. To see what other software is compatible, visit https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/making-tax-digital-software.
