United Kingdom FAQs

How much is stamp duty on a GBP 350,000 house?

For a standard purchase: 0% on the first GBP 250,000 = GBP 0, plus 5% on the next GBP 100,000 = GBP 5,000. Total SDLT: GBP 5,000. First-time buyers: GBP 0 (relief applies up to GBP 425,000).

What is the first-time buyer relief?

First-time buyers pay 0% SDLT on the first GBP 425,000 and 5% on the portion between GBP 425,001 and GBP 625,000. The property must cost GBP 625,000 or less to qualify. Above that, normal rates apply with no relief.

What is the additional property surcharge?

A 5% surcharge applies on top of standard rates when buying a second home, buy-to-let, or any additional property. On a GBP 350,000 purchase: standard SDLT GBP 5,000 + surcharge GBP 17,500 = GBP 22,500 total.

Do non-UK residents pay more stamp duty?

Yes. A 2% surcharge applies to non-UK residents on top of all other rates (including the additional property surcharge if applicable). This was introduced in April 2021.

Does Scotland use the same stamp duty system?

No. Scotland has its own Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT) with different bands and rates. Wales uses Land Transaction Tax (LTT). SDLT only applies in England and Northern Ireland.

When do I pay stamp duty?

SDLT must be filed and paid within 14 days of completion (the day you legally own the property). Your solicitor or conveyancer typically handles the payment and filing on your behalf.

Is stamp duty tax deductible?

For your main home, no. For buy-to-let properties, SDLT is added to the purchase cost and reduces capital gains tax when you sell. It is not deductible against rental income.
