How Stamp Duty Works

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is a tax you pay when buying a property in England. It works in bands - you only pay the rate for the portion of the price that falls within each band, similar to income tax.

First-Time Buyer Relief

If you're a first-time buyer purchasing a property up to £500,000, you pay no stamp duty on the first £300,000 and 5% on the portion from £300,001 to £500,000. No relief is available on properties over £500,000.

Additional Property Surcharge

If you already own a property and are buying an additional one (second home, buy-to-let), you pay a 5% surcharge on top of the standard rates on the entire price.
