Estimate Stamp Duty Land Tax
Use Kandoo's stamp duty calculator to estimate the Stamp Duty Land Tax that may apply when buying a residential property in England or Northern Ireland. SDLT is calculated on increasing portions of the property price rather than one flat rate on the whole purchase price.
Standard, first-time buyer and additional property rates
The calculator includes standard residential rates, first-time buyer relief up to the qualifying threshold, and the additional-property surcharge where you are buying another residential property. First-time buyer relief does not apply when the purchase price is above the relief limit.
What this calculator does not cover
This calculator does not cover Land Transaction Tax in Wales, Land and Buildings Transaction Tax in Scotland, non-resident surcharge, companies and trusts, shared ownership, complex leasehold rent calculations or linked purchases. Always check professional advice for complex transactions.
Is this for England and Northern Ireland only?
Yes. Scotland and Wales use different property transaction tax systems, so their calculations are not included here.
How is first-time buyer relief applied?
For qualifying first-time buyers, SDLT is reduced on purchases up to the relief limit. Purchases above that limit follow standard residential rates.
What is the additional property surcharge?
If buying a new residential property means you own more than one property, a higher SDLT rate usually applies.
