About Stamp Duty

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is generally payable on the purchase or transfer of property or land in the UK where the amount paid is above a certain threshold. In addition most UK land and property transactions must be notified to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) on a Stamp Duty Land Tax return within a certain time limit - even if no tax is due.

Various rules apply for working out how much, if any, SDLT is payable. The calculation - which is based on a value called the 'chargeable consideration' - can vary depending on whether the land is residential or non-residential, freehold or leasehold, or on other factors such as whether several transactions are linked.

SDLT is charged on the total value of what's known as 'the chargeable consideration'. The chargeable consideration includes everything of economic value given in exchange for the property - so as well as a payment of money, it can include a release from a debt, the transfer of an existing mortgage, or the provision of other services.
