I’m joined by accountant Matthew Norton from DJH to map the UK tax changes that matter most in the 2026 to 2027 tax year, with plain-English explanations and the practical “what would you do differently on Monday?” angle.We dig into fiscal drag, National Insurance pressures on practices, and the student loan reality for Plan 2 dentists, including why repayments can barely touch the balance when interest is high. Then we get into the big behavioural shift: Making Tax Digital for Income Tax. If your self-employed turnover crossed the £50,000 line, quarterly reporting and the right MTD software are now essential, and getting set up early is the difference between smooth compliance and last-minute panic.From there we tackle dividend tax changes, the tiny dividend allowance, and why the old salary-and-dividends routine needs a fresh look for limited company dental practices. We also cover tax-efficient choices that can still work, like keeping money inside the company when you don’t need to extract it, the logic behind holding companies and family investment companies, and the current incentives around electric company cars and benefit in kind.To finish, we look forward: Business Asset Disposal Relief and capital gains tax changes that affect practice sales, the April 2027 cash ISA limit shift for under-65s, and the growing concern that private pensions may be pulled into inheritance tax planning.
