With FreeAgent, you can file MTD VAT returns directly to HMRC and you’ll be ready for MTD for Income Tax when it comes into effect. It’s also free with your business current account. Optional add-ons may be chargeable.

FreeAgent is free for all our business bank account customers. If you already pay for a FreeAgent account, you can switch it to a free account by adding your NatWest details to your Banking tab, saving between £50 and £396 (+VAT) per year.**
