Stamp Duty Land Tax (Sdlt)

Is a property tax that buyers must pay when purchasing a property in England and Northern Ireland. It is a progressive tax, meaning that different portions of the purchase price are taxed at different rates. The tax applies to both freehold and leasehold properties and is due within 14 days of the property purchase completion. The amount of stamp duty depends on the purchase price and whether the buyer qualifies for exceptions, such as first-time buyer relief.
