Specialist UK Tax

Stamp duty

Stamp taxes apply to property and share transactions, and the rules (reliefs, surcharges and exemptions) are easy to get wrong in both directions. We advise on the stamp duty consequences of a transaction before it completes.

Getting the analysis right means paying the correct amount: neither overpaying nor leaving an exposure behind.

Frequently asked questions

Do you advise before or after a purchase?

Both, but ideally before. The right structure and reliefs are easiest to apply ahead of completion. We can also review completed transactions where there is doubt about the amount paid.

Is the overseas buyer surcharge relevant to me?

If you are a non-UK resident buying UK residential property, an additional SDLT surcharge may apply. We can confirm your position and any reliefs.
