Self Assessment and MTD in Chepstow: the essentials

In short: if you are self-employed, a landlord, a company director or have income outside PAYE, you need a Self Assessment tax return by 31 January. If your income from self-employment and property is over £50,000, you also need to keep digital records and send quarterly updates to HMRC under Making Tax Digital.

Are you a Welsh taxpayer?

If your main home is in Wales you are a Welsh taxpayer. For 2026/27 the Welsh Government has kept Welsh rates of income tax at 10p in each band, so you pay the same overall rates as in England: 20%, 40% and 45%. Your tax code should start with a C, such as C1257L. If it does not, HMRC may have the wrong address. Check yours with our tax code checker.

Making Tax Digital for Chepstow sole traders and landlords

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax started on 6 April 2026 for qualifying income over £50,000. It extends to income over £30,000 from April 2027 and over £20,000 from April 2028. You keep digital records in HMRC-recognised software and send four quarterly updates, due on 7 August, 7 November, 7 February and 7 May. You still finish the year with a tax return by 31 January. Read more on our Making Tax Digital page.

Local tax points for Chepstow clients

  • Cross-border workers: you are a Welsh taxpayer if your main home is in Wales, even if you work in England. Your tax code should start with C.
  • Company directors: dividends are taxed at 10.75% and 35.75% from April 2026, so we plan salary and dividends together. See our dividend tax calculator.
  • Landlords: buying another property in Wales means Land Transaction Tax, not Stamp Duty, with higher rates for additional homes. Check your rental profit with our rental income calculator.
