Stamp duty
Stamp duty in the Australian Capital Territory
Transfer duty in the Australian Capital Territory, estimated from the published schedule. Concessions, surcharges and exemptions are not applied.
Estimate only. Not a quote, offer or advice.
Choose a state and enter the dutiable value.
Assumptions
- Uses the published general, commercial or owner-occupier schedule only, as each state names it.
- First home buyer concessions, foreign purchaser surcharges, off-the-plan concessions, pensioner concessions and exemptions are not applied.
- The dutiable value is usually the greater of the price and the market value. The revenue office decides.
- Landholder duty, corporate reconstructions and trust transfers are not covered.
How this is calculated
- Finds the schedule tier your value falls into.
- Duty = the tier's base amount + the tier's rate × the value above the tier threshold, or the rate × the whole value where the schedule says so.
- Where the official schedule rounds up per $100, the value is rounded up first.
Free. No obligation. Not an application for credit.
