Stamp Duty (SDLT) calculator
England & Northern Ireland · current rates
Additional property and company purchases add a 5% surcharge to every band. Purchases under £40,000 pay no SDLT. First-time buyer relief applies up to £500,000; above that, standard rates apply on the full price. Company purchases of a single dwelling over £500,000 can attract a 17% flat rate unless the company qualifies for relief (e.g. genuine rental business) — get this checked before relying on the figure. Estimate only.
Stamp duty for landlords
An additional property, including any buy-to-let, pays the standard residential bands plus a 5% surcharge on every band. A limited company pays the surcharge on all residential purchases, and a company buying a dwelling over £500,000 can face a flat 17% unless a relief such as the property rental business relief applies. Non-UK residents pay a further 2%.
Mixed-use and commercial purchases use the lower non-residential rates instead. Wales and Scotland have their own taxes (LTT and LBTT).
