What is Stamp Duty?

Written By Alison Robinson

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is a tax levied on the purchase of property in England and Northern Ireland.

SDLT is charged at different rates depending on the purchase price of a property and various other facts (eg, if it a second home or you live overseas). There are a number of stamp duty tax bands with rates rising from lower to higher bands.
