ISA applications for the 2025/26 tax year need to be submitted by 12pm on Tuesday 31 March 2026. Applications for the 2026/27 tax year will open in the new tax year. If you’re looking to top up an existing ISA, electronic payments must reach your account by 5pm on Thursday 2 April 2026, and cheque payments by Wednesday 1 April 2026 to count towards the 2025/26 ISA allowance. Any money received after the cut-off will count towards your 2026/27 ISA allowance.
