Hi,
I plan to build external concrete steps (3 x steps).

The ground area will be approximately 84 X 84 centimetres.

How deep should the foundation be, please?.

Thank you.
 
I'm not an expert and I don't know if you have researched the matter but your dimensions made me wonder if your steps will comply with building regulations.
 
Just scrape off the top layer of soft/top soil. Typically up to 200mm deep. If you already have hardcore/ hard ground for existing paving, that might do and not need removing.

Bedding a concrete paving slab as the foundations and building off that may be useful.
