This calculator uses the same progressive tax bands and legislative rules as HMRC’s own tool — drawn directly from the Finance Act 2003 and its subsequent amendments — but goes significantly further. Where the standard HMRC calculator handles a basic residential purchase, this one covers all five major SDLT scenarios: residential, non-residential, mixed-use, company transfers and reclaims.

Residential SDLT

Who is buying?
Is this your first property purchase?
Do you own (or part-own) any other residential property?
Does one of these apply to the other property?
Are you replacing your main residence?
When will you sell the previous home?
Are you a UK resident for stamp duty purposes?
Is the property for a qualifying business purpose?

If yes, the 15% enveloped-dwellings rate may not apply.

Non-Residential SDLT

Transaction type
Who is buying?
Is the company connected to the seller?

If yes, SDLT is based on market value under FA 2003 s.53.

Is this part of a linked transaction?

Mixed-Use SDLT

Mixed-use properties are taxed at lower non-residential rates. Select your property type and complete the eligibility checker.

What best describes your property?

Non-UK resident? (for comparison)

Company Transfer SDLT

Calculate SDLT when transferring property to or acquiring via a company. For residential properties over £500,000 without a qualifying business purpose, the 15% enveloped-dwellings rate may apply.

Property type
Is the company connected to the seller?

Connected parties include directors, shareholders with significant control, and associated companies. If connected, SDLT is based on market value (FA 2003 s.53).

Is the property for a qualifying business purpose?

If yes, the 15% enveloped-dwellings rate does not apply — the company pays standard residential rates with the higher-rates surcharge instead.

Is the company a non-UK resident?
