HMRC says self-employed people need accurate records of sales, income, business expenses and proof such as receipts, sales invoices and bank statements. Digital record keeping is allowed, but the record still needs to be accurate and readable.

This local tool helps you begin a basic CSV; it does not decide what is deductible, calculate tax, create a VAT invoice, or replace source documents. Use your own bookkeeping process and professional advice where appropriate.
