Uber drivers are self-employed, so your earnings go through Self Assessment and, since April 2026, Making Tax Digital for Income Tax: digital records, quarterly updates and a year-end final declaration sent to HMRC through connected software. Autodue is built on HMRC's Making Tax Digital system to handle all of it from your phone, built for the way drivers actually earn.
What it means for Uber drivers
As an Uber driver you run your own business in HMRC's eyes. That means reporting your income and expenses each year, and under Making Tax Digital, sending quarterly updates and a year-end final declaration through software that connects to HMRC. Autodue is built to do exactly that, without spreadsheets or a weekend lost to paperwork.
Your Uber income, the way HMRC wants it
Your weekly Uber summary shows gross fares, the Uber service fee, tips and promotions. HMRC wants your gross self-employed income, not just what lands in your account. Autodue helps you record the full picture so your figures are right first time.
