Autumn Budget 2026 is delivered on 28 October 2026
Autumn Budget 2026 is delivered on 28 October 2026, the first from Chancellor John Healey. This is a diary event rather than a duty, so nothing falls due on the day itself.
What it carries is next year's calendar. Tax and threshold changes announced on the day are what drive the 2027 deadlines a business will be reading about in the spring. The register carries it as a diary event and not as a duty, which is why it appears with no filing attached to the day.
Every UK business, indirectly
Every UK business. Expect tax and threshold changes announced here to drive 2027 deadlines, which is the reason a date with no duty attached still belongs in the diary.
Making the day useful
- Put 28 October 2026 in the diary as a reading date, not a filing date.
- Note the tax and threshold changes announced that touch your business.
- Carry any new dates announced into your 2027 compliance calendar.
- Read the announcements against your own obligation list rather than against the general coverage.
- Check whether any threshold change announced touches a 2027 filing or reporting date you already hold.
