Stamp Duty Land Tax

If the home you’re buying costs more than £125,000, you have to pay what is called Stamp Duty Land Tax to the government.

How much you pay depends on how much your home costs. The table below explains:

Up to £125,000 0%
£125,001 - £250,000 1%
£250,001 - £500,000 3%
£500,001+ 4%

Disadvantaged areas
In some areas, which the government describes as ‘disadvantaged’, you don’t have to pay any stamp duty land tax if the home you’re buying costs £150,000 or less. Find out more about ‘disadvantaged areas’.
