Everything You Need to Know About Stamp Duty

How Stamp Duty Works

Stamp Duty Land Tax is paid when you buy a home in England or Northern Ireland. It is charged in bands, so each rate only applies to the part of the price in that band.

First-Time Buyer Relief

First-time buyers pay nothing on the first £300,000 and 5% on the part up to £500,000. Above £500,000, the relief is lost and standard rates apply.

Second Homes and Buy-to-Let

If you will own more than one home, an extra 5% is added to every band. Non-UK residents pay a further 2% on top.

Stamp Duty Calculator FAQs

Yes, at first. If you still own your old home on completion day, you pay the extra 5%. You can claim it back from HMRC if you sell your old main home within 3 years.

Yes. If you will own more than one home when you complete, the extra 5% is added to each band. This covers buy-to-lets, holiday homes and homes bought for family.

You must send a return to HMRC and pay within 14 days of completion. Your solicitor or conveyancer usually does this for you and adds it to their bill.

Some lenders let you borrow more to cover costs, but it means a smaller deposit and more interest over time. Most buyers pay it from savings. We can talk you through your mortgage options.
