    Stamp Duty Calculator

    Calculate how much stamp duty you'll need to pay on your property purchase

    First-Time Buyer Relief:

    If you're a first-time buyer purchasing a property for £500,000 or less, you may be eligible for relief:

    • No stamp duty on properties up to £300,000
    • 5% on the portion from £300,001 to £500,000

    Above £500,000 the relief does not apply and standard rates are charged on the whole price.

    Additional Property Surcharge:

    If you're buying an additional property (and will own more than one residential property), you'll usually pay an extra 5% on top of standard stamp duty rates on the entire purchase price. Buyers who are not UK residents may pay a further 2%, which this calculator does not include.

    *This calculator uses Stamp Duty Land Tax rates for England and Northern Ireland, checked against GOV.UK in October 2026. Different taxes and rates apply in Scotland and Wales. Always check the current rates on GOV.UK.

    Stamp Duty Land Tax applies in England and Northern Ireland. Scotland has Land and Buildings Transaction Tax and Wales has Land Transaction Tax, each with its own rates. Always check current rates on GOV.UK before you rely on a result.
