Welcome to this quick guide on MTD IT Client Approval. This guide will walk you through the essential steps.
HMRC requires client approval before a submission containing the final declaration is made. The MTDIT module allows you to request and capture client approval digitally before submissions are sent to HMRC. The built in approval flow and e-signing provide a clear audit trail and help reduce delays caused by manual sign off processes. The MTDIT module allows you to obtain approvals for both quarterly submissions and the final declaration.
