Stamp Duty calculator

Stamp Duty rates as announced in the mini-budget on 23 September 2022 will remain the same until 31 March 2025. 

The amount you pay is based on Stamp Duty bands. The tax is calculated on the part of the property price falling in each band.

Our Stamp Duty calculator lets you know the amount of tax you'll be liable to pay. It’ll work out how much Stamp Duty you’ll owe, whether you’re a first-time buyer, moving home, or buying an additional property. 

If you live in Scotland, use our Land and Buildings Transaction Tax calculator.

If you live in Wales, use our Land Transaction Tax calculator.

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is a tax you might have to pay if you buy a property in England or Northern Ireland but you’ll only have to pay it if the house you’re buying is over a certain price. 

You’ll pay Stamp Duty on residential properties costing more than £250,000, unless you qualify for first-time buyer’s relief.

Eligible first-time buyers will pay no Stamp Duty on properties costing up to £425,000, and a discounted rate on property purchases up to £625,000.

If you’re buying a property in Scotland, you will pay Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT) and in Wales Land Transaction Tax (LTT) instead of Stamp Duty.

There are several rate bands for Stamp Duty. The tax is calculated on the part of the property purchase price falling within each band. You’ll pay Stamp Duty on the purchase of your main property costing more than £250,000, unless you’re a first-time buyer.

The rate of Stamp Duty you pay depends on where in the UK you're buying a property. England and Northern Ireland have the same rates, while Scotland and Wales use different ones.

You have 14 days to file a Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) return and pay any SDLT due. If you don’t submit a return and pay the tax within 14 days, HMRC might charge you penalties and interest.
