What you might calculate next

How it works

Standard rates (April 2025+)

0% up to £125,000 · 2% to £250,000 · 5% to £925,000 · 10% to £1.5m · 12% above £1.5m. Applies to your main residential purchase when you're replacing your current home.

First-time buyer relief

0% up to £300,000 and 5% on £300,001–£500,000. Relief is fully withdrawn for purchases above £500,000 — the standard rates apply instead.

3% additional-property surcharge

Applies on top of standard rates if you're buying a second home, buy-to-let, or any additional residential property. Calculated on the full purchase price.

2% non-UK resident surcharge

Charged on top of standard rates if you've not been UK-resident for the 12 months before completion. Combines with the 3% surcharge for second homes purchased by non-residents.

Scotland (LBTT) and Wales (LTT)

Stamp Duty does NOT apply in Scotland or Wales. They use Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT) and Land Transaction Tax (LTT) respectively, with different bands and reliefs.

When to pay

SDLT is due within 14 days of completion. Your solicitor or conveyancer normally calculates, files and pays it on your behalf as part of completion.
