Making Tax Digital not to be extended in 2020

Am I correct in understanding that MTD will not be compulsory in April 2020 ?

Hello @JustinHerbert

At the moment MTD is only compulsory for VAT and where companies meet a criteria:

From 1 April 2019, VAT registered businesses with turnover over the VAT threshold (£85,000) will be required to maintain digital accounting records and to file their VAT returns directly from MTD compliant software.

Other taxes will come in the future, but the Government did mention in the Spring Statement that this won’t be during 2020.
