Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) overview

What SDLT covers

Stamp Duty Land Tax applies to property purchases in England and Northern Ireland. The tax is calculated on progressive bands — you pay different rates on portions of the price, not a flat percentage on the full amount.

First-time buyer relief reduces tax on properties up to certain thresholds. Additional property purchases (second homes, buy-to-let) incur a surcharge on each band.

Planning your purchase budget

SDLT is due within 14 days of completion in most cases. Include it in your total cash needed alongside deposit, solicitor fees, and surveys.

This calculator models England & NI rules only. If you buy in Scotland or Wales, use LBTT or LTT calculators with local guidance.
