Clear Books
About us
MTD for Income Tax is here. Clear Books is ready for it.
Clear Books is HMRC-recognised accounting software, made in the UK since 2008. We make Making Tax Digital simple for accountants, bookkeepers, sole traders and landlords.
This isn't theory. Thousands of sole traders, landlords and accountants have already submitted quarterly updates and year end returns using Clear Books.
WHO WE'RE FOR
Accountants and bookkeepers who need every in-scope client MTD-compliant without the admin taking over the practice.
Sole traders and landlords who want to keep digital records and file to HMRC without needing accounting experience.
Small UK businesses that need simple, honest software for VAT, invoicing and reporting.
MTD FOR YOUR WHOLE PRACTICE
While others charge per client, we charge per practice.
Unlimited MTD for Income Tax clients for £50 a month.
Unlimited clients for £100 a month, VAT-registered clients included. One bill, every client, no exceptions.
No setup fees. No commitment. Smaller practices can pay per client and move to an unlimited plan when it saves them money.
With the MTD threshold dropping to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028, your number of in-scope clients will only go up. Your software bill doesn't have to.
