Enterprise Management Incentives (EMI) Scheme Changes: What Growing Businesses Need to Know!

For many growing businesses, attracting and retaining talented people is one of the biggest challenges they face. As companies scale, the need to reward key team members while managing cash flow becomes increasingly important.

One approach that many entrepreneurial and high-growth businesses are exploring is the Enterprise Management Incentive (EMI) scheme. Designed to help companies incentivise employees through share options, EMI schemes can align teams with the long-term success of the business while offering valuable tax advantages.

In this article, our Senior Client Manager, Helen Griffiths, explores how EMI schemes work, what has changed, and what businesses should be aware of moving forward > https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0vSH-00

At Plus Accounting, we welcome the continued move towards digitalisation and Making Tax Digital. However, it is vital that any changes are introduced in a way that is practical, effective, and manageable for taxpayers, agents, and the wider profession.

A growing number of firms are raising concerns around the current proposed 5-week quarterly submission deadline for MTD ITSA and the operational pressure this could create, particularly alongside January Self Assessment deadlines, VAT submissions, and wider compliance requirements.

This Parliamentary Petition, launched by Nick Paddenburg (Paddenburg and Co - Brighton Tax), is calling for the MTD filing window to be extended from five weeks to three months. The proposal aims to improve reporting accuracy, reduce unnecessary administrative pressure, and help ensure the long-term success of Making Tax Digital for taxpayers, agents, and advisers alike.

The petition can be viewed here > https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0vQgSR0

HMRC should extend the Quarterly Update deadline under Making Tax Digital for Income Tax from 5 weeks to 3 months after each quarter, giving taxpayers and agents more time to prepare accurate submissions and better align with existing reporting cycles.

ICYMI: For the first time in 15 years, the approved mileage allowance rate has increased, rising from 45p to 55p per mile from 6 April 2026. The new rate applies to the first 10,000 business miles travelled in cars and vans and has been introduced to better reflect the rising costs of fuel and vehicle running expenses.

As an employer, you can reimburse employees for business travel undertaken in their personal vehicles using the approved mileage rates, also known as Approved Mileage Allowance Payments (AMAPs).
