The end of the 2025/26 tax year will soon be here, which means a few additional tasks to carry out on your payroll, if you run one.
If you run a payroll, you will need to report information on the tax year that is ending to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). The tax year ends on 5 April 2026.
You will also need to prepare for the new tax year, which starts on 6 April. HMRC provide the following handy list of tasks that need to be carried out and when.
- Send your final payroll report of the year on or before your employee’s payday.
- Update employee payroll records and payroll software from 6 April.
- Give your employees a P60 by 31 May.
- Report employee expenses and benefits by 6 July.
