Sign-in
Once you have successfully registered, you can sign in to access your My Tax Digital and start managing your MTD requiremeents.
-
Browse to the My Tax Digital website.
-
Click on the "Sign-in" button, located in the top-right corner.
-
Enter your registered email address and the secure password you created during registration.

-
Click the "Sign-in" button.
-
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Check: Because your security is important, the system will immediately prompt you for a one-time passcode.
- This 6-digit passcode will be sent to your registered email address (or generated by your Authenticator app, if you've switched to that method). It expires after 15 minutes.
-
Check your email inbox (and junk/spam folder, just in case) for the new code. If you have triggered the sign-in more than once, make sure you use the most recent passcode — only the latest one will work.

- Enter the 6-digit passcode into the Verify Identity screen.

- Click "Submit" to complete the sign-in process and access your account.
Troubleshooting
"We are unable to send an email to this address": If you see this message when signing in, your email address may be on a suppression list — this can happen if a previous email from us bounced. Contact support, who can clear the suppression quickly. Once cleared, the sign-in passcode will be sent as normal.
"I reset my password but I still can't sign in": A password reset only changes your password — you'll still need to complete the Two-Factor Authentication step on every sign-in, including straight after a reset (see steps 5–7 above). Check that you're entering the passcode from the most recent email within its 15-minute expiry, and check your spam/junk folder if it hasn't arrived.
Account locked after too many failed attempts: After 5 unsuccessful password attempts, your account is temporarily locked for security. The lockout starts at 1 hour and increases by a further hour for each additional failed attempt made while it's still active. Resetting your password during an active lockout completes successfully but does not clear the lockout early — only waiting out the remaining time does. If you need access before the lockout expires, contact support to have it cleared.
