This calculator is for educational purposes only and is not tax or financial advice. It estimates the standard charge for a typical residential purchase; your circumstances may differ. Always check the relevant authority (GOV.UK, Revenue Scotland, or the Welsh Revenue Authority) or speak to a conveyancer.
How this works
Property-purchase tax is devolved, so the rules depend on where the property is:
- England & Northern Ireland — Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)
- Scotland — Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT)
- Wales — Land Transaction Tax (LTT)
Each works in slices: a different rate applies to the portion of the price within each band, not to the whole price at once.
First-time buyers get a higher tax-free threshold in England, N. Ireland and Scotland (in England the relief is withdrawn entirely above £500,000); Wales offers no first-time-buyer relief.
Additional properties (a second home or buy-to-let) are taxed more: England & N. Ireland add a 5% surcharge to every band, Scotland adds an 8% Additional Dwelling Supplement on the whole price, and Wales uses a separate set of higher rates.
Assumptions
- Rates verified as of 16 June 2026; these change at Budgets — confirm against the relevant tax authority before relying on a figure.
- Assumes a standard residential purchase of a single freehold/leasehold dwelling. Non-residential, mixed-use, linked transactions, leases and company purchases follow different rules.
- Does not handle reliefs beyond standard first-time-buyer relief, or replacement-of-main-residence refunds of the additional-property charge.
