MTD VAT bridging software compared by price

Tools that send a VAT return from a spreadsheet, with each price read on the vendor's own page

This table lists tools that send a VAT return to HMRC from a spreadsheet. A tool is in the table when it is on HMRC's list of software compatible with Making Tax Digital for VAT as bridging software, shows a public price on its own website, and does the same job. We read each price on the vendor's own website on 13 November 2026. The table is a selection of 11 tools, not every tool on the list.

The list is Find software that is compatible with Making Tax Digital for VAT.

The rows run from the lowest price for one year to the highest: a monthly price counts 12 times and a price for each return counts 4 times, for 4 quarterly returns.

Each price is as the vendor states it, with or without VAT. The multiplication above sets the order only; the column shows the vendor's words.

Prices change. The vendor's own page is the authority, so check it before you buy.
