Why DoneTax
Making Tax Digital made effortless.
Purpose-built for UK landlords. Not adapted from generic accounting software.
START IN MINUTES.
NOTHING TO MIGRATE.
Add your rental income and expenses directly - a clean ledger built for property, not adapted from business accounting. Put each one in a category - repairs, agent fees, insurance, finance costs and more - and DoneTax files it under the matching HMRC expense field.
JOINTLY OWNED PROPERTY?
SORTED.
Own with a partner? Tell DoneTax your share - any split from 1% to 99% - and every income and expense figure is divided correctly before it's reported. Whether the full rent lands in your account or just your share, DoneTax reports the right number.
STRAIGHT TO HMRC.
NO MIDDLEMAN.
DoneTax submits directly to the HMRC API via OAuth 2.0. No bridging software. No spreadsheet exports. No third-party relay. Your submission goes from DoneTax to HMRC.
THE WHOLE YEAR.
NOT JUST QUARTERS.
DoneTax files all four quarterly updates and your year-end tax return. With DoneTax the whole cycle lives in one place.
YOUR TAX BILL.
NO JANUARY SURPRISE.
See your estimated tax as you file each quarter, calculated from the figures HMRC has actually received. You'll know roughly what's coming months before it's due - not the day the bill lands.
MORTGAGE INTEREST.
HANDLED RIGHT.
Mortgage interest on a residential let isn't a deductible expense - HMRC gives a 20% tax credit for it instead. DoneTax reports it in the separate field HMRC requires.
Work the way you want
Your tax. Your choice.
DoneTax starts with a simple idea. You should be able to deal with your quarterly updates in the way that works for you.
Do it yourself
You keep control
Enter your rent and expenses, keep your digital records organised, check your quarter and submit when you are ready.
Get StartedUse your accountant
Already have one?
If your accountant uses DoneTax+, you can send them each quarter's figures in a tap. They review each quarter and adjust if needed. Submitting to HMRC on your behalf is separate and needs you to authorise them with HMRC directly.

Simple by design.
Not accounting software with tax bolted on. DoneTax does one job for landlords, so every screen is about the next thing you need to do.
It tells you what's next
Your dashboard shows which quarter is due, by when, and the one thing to do next. There is no filing calendar to learn.
Behind? One update catches up
Each quarterly update carries your totals for the tax year so far. If you missed a quarter, your next update brings your account up to date.
Jointly owned? Set it once
Tell DoneTax your share and whether the full rent reaches your bank. Every update files your part, so there is no halving to do by hand.

A connected future
Your clients are going digital too.
We are developing the professional side of the DoneLabs ecosystem for independent accountants and accountancy practices working with Making Tax Digital clients.
The aim is simple. Make it easier for clients and their accountants to work from the same digital records, without forcing the client into a full accounting suite.
Dedicated platform for accountants managing multiple clients' Making Tax Digital for Income Tax submissions.
A note from the founder
I started DoneLabs after listening to landlords talk about Making Tax Digital for Income Tax. Not one of them was arguing with the idea of digital records. What they objected to was being handed a full accounting system to satisfy a quarterly obligation they hadn't asked for.
So the brief was narrow on purpose. Record your rent and expenses, check your quarter, send it to HMRC. No invoicing you don't use. No accounting system to learn.
The second half took longer to see. Accountants are dealing with the same problem from the other side, working through client records every time a quarterly update is due.
That's why DoneLabs is built around both sides. DoneTax is for keeping your own records and sending your own quarterly updates. DoneTax+ is for accountants. If your accountant uses it, they can invite you to connect, you send them each quarter's figures to review, and they can file for you once you have authorised them with HMRC.
One job, done properly, for both people who have to do it.
