Good to know
AbraTax is bridging software, so you keep your bookkeeping in your own spreadsheet and link AbraTax's template to it with formulas, which is how it makes the digital link HMRC asks for. Its MTD page lists three plans, priced by how many people's returns you file rather than by income or property, and each one covers self-employment, UK property and foreign property, other income such as dividends and interest, quarterly updates and the annual tax return. We show the monthly prices, and the annual option works out cheaper, at £50 a year for one person. AbraTax shows these prices excluding VAT. It says there are no bank feeds, and every plan lets you share access with your accountant. Your first return is free, which we treat as a trial rather than a free plan. We did not find anything about several properties, jointly owned property, furnished holiday lets, mileage, receipt capture or mobile apps. We checked this on 2 November 2026.

What HMRC’s Self Assessment software list says about AbraTax
If you are sending a Self Assessment return for the 2025 to 2026 tax year, HMRC keeps a separate list of commercial software for that yearly return, apart from its MTD software list.
HMRC’s Self Assessment software list shows AbraTax Ltd with the product “AbraTax for Income Tax Self Assessment”, answering “Yes” under “For agents” and “Yes” under “For individuals”. That listing is for a different product from the one on this page. AbraTax’s own site, which we read on 31 October 2026, says “Our HMRC-recognised, cloud-based tax software enables free, secure, and straightforward Self Assessment returns.”
GOV.UK last updated HMRC’s list on 23 October 2026, and we read it on 31 October 2026. HMRC does not endorse Acrenvo or any product in its list. HMRC’s list of software for your Self Assessment return
