Tax e-News August 2025

Welcome to our monthly tax newsletter designed to keep you informed of the latest tax issues.

In this month’s edition:

This August 2025 Tax E-News provides a summary of recent tax developments. Legislation Day on July 21, 2025, saw the release of draft tax documents. Key proposals include new restrictions on inheritance tax relief for agricultural and business property from April 2026, and bringing Employee Car Ownership Schemes under benefit-in-kind rules. HMRC’s Transformation Roadmap, aiming for 90% of customer interactions to be digital by 2030, was also launched.

Regarding Making Tax Digital (MTD), HMRC is moving forward with MTD for Income Tax, set to begin on April 6, 2026. However, MTD for Corporation Tax will not be implemented. The first group of individuals to be mandated will be those with qualifying income over £50,000 in the 2024/25 tax year. Lastly, HMRC has identified an issue with some self-employed taxpayers being incorrectly charged Class 2 National Insurance contributions for 2024/25 and is working to correct these records.
