QuickBooks Desktop discontinuation support
by Intuit• Updated 1 month ago
This page outlines the reasoning behind the discontinuation of QuickBooks Desktop.
Important update
QuickBooks Desktop isn't a compliant Making Tax Digital (MTD) solution. Starting from the 7th April 2024, HMRC will no longer accept MTD submissions through QuickBooks Desktop 2016 or newer versions.
If you want to keep submitting VAT following the HMRC guidelines, you’ll need to either switch over to QuickBooks Online or another solution that meets the MTD requirements.
Call 08081684270 to discuss your options with a member of our sales team.
What led to QuickBooks Desktop being discontinued?
Helping you stay compliant is our priority. With previous changes to accounting and tax regulations, and with more on the horizon, we decided to discontinue all QuickBooks Desktop services for our UK customers on 30 June, 2023. This includes all versions of QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier and Enterprise.
