On December 5 2022, the first release will be available to existing Dext Prepare customers as part of the Dext Prepare product. In early 2023, we will make the MTD ITSA solution available to the wider market. Dext’s solution will include the option to submit directly to HMRC on behalf of self-employed and landlord clients.

Dext has always strived to deliver a suite of bookkeeping efficiency tools that allows accountants and bookkeepers to manage the demands of modern-day accounting. Now, as we approach a landmark moment in HMRC legislation, Dext is determined to continue that promise by supporting firms (and their clients) with a best-in-class product for MTD ITSA.

“We know that accountants and bookkeepers face a significant change in how they manage and support self-employed and landlord clients,” said Sabby Gill, CEO of Dext. “We also know that our existing Prepare product was ideally placed to provide the best possible solution for both our accountant and bookkeeper partners, and their clients. To help those partners, we’re determined to empower them with a product they already know and love that’s been adapted for MTD ITSA.”

Vice President of Accounting Strategy at Dext, Paul Lodder, added: “MTD for ITSA is a real challenge for nearly all firms. We wanted to create a tool that firms can configure to their processes as well as their clients – without having to reinvent the way they work or the systems from which they do so.”
