ANNA Money is now officially recognised by HMRC for Making Tax Digital

Big news: As of now, ANNA is officially recognised by HMRC as compatible software for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (MTD for ITSA).


In plain English? HMRC has been through our MTD service with a fine-tooth comb and has given it the thumbs up – so you can confidently submit your quarterly tax updates to HMRC directly through ANNA.
From April 2026, sole traders, freelancers and landlords earning over £50,000 will need to keep digital records and send updates to HMRC every quarter, instead of once a year. We know that sounds like more admin – but it doesn’t have to be.
ANNA can do it for you. Just link your bank account and ANNA automatically categorises your transactions, keeps your records organised, prepares the info needed for your quarterly submissions and sends them for you. That means goodbye to spreadsheets, fewer headaches and a lot less time worrying about tax.
As our co-founder and co-CEO Eduard Panteleev puts it:
Getting HMRC’s recognition is a huge vote of confidence in ANNA’s offering to small business owners across the UK. While many SME owners and sole traders are still feeling uncertain about Making Tax Digital, we’re making sure cost and complexity don’t stand in the way of growing their businesses.
To make things even easier ANNA is launching Auto Accountant – the UK’s first agentic operating system that can prepare and file small business and sole trader tax returns, including Corporation Tax, VAT and Self Assessment (MTD ready). Auto Accountant is available for free for MTD Self Assessment – including quarterly and year end filings for the 2026/27 tax year.
If you’re affected by MTD, all you need to do is connect your bank account and let ANNA take it from there.
Tax admin, sorted.
