Stamp Duty
You must pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) if you buy a property or land over a certain price in England and Northern Ireland.
The tax is different if the property or land is in:
- Scotland – pay Land and Buildings Transaction Tax
- Wales – pay Land Transaction Tax if the sale was completed on or after 1 April 2018
Tax treatment is based on individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future.
Information is based on our current understanding of taxation legislation and regulations. Any levels and bases of, and reliefs from taxation, are subject to change.
The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate tax planning.
If you wish to seek advice on Stamp Duty, it’s advisable to speak to your solicitor/tax advisor.
If you're replacing your main residence
You won’t pay the extra 3% SDLT if the property you’re buying is replacing your main residence and that has already been sold.
If there’s a delay selling your main residence and it hasn’t been sold on the day you complete your new purchase:
- you’ll have to pay higher rates because you own 2 properties
- you may be able to get a refund if you sell your previous main home within 36 months
