As of May 2025, the UK’s Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) thresholds and rates have reverted to their pre-September 2022 levels, following the end of temporary relief measures on 31 March 2025. Here’s a concise overview:
Standard Residential Property Rates
For purchases completed on or after 1 April 2025:
Up to £125,000: 0%
£125,001 – £250,000: 2%
£250,001 – £925,000: 5%
£925,001 – £1.5 million: 10%
Over £1.5 million: 12%
First-Time Buyer Relief
Eligible first-time buyers benefit from reduced rates:
Up to £300,000: 0%
£300,001 – £500,000: 5% on the portion above £300,000
Properties priced over £500,000 do not qualify for this relief.
Additional Property Surcharge
An extra 5% SDLT applies if purchasing an additional residential property (e.g second homes or buy-to-let investments). This surcharge is added to the standard rates.
Non-UK Resident Surcharge
Non-UK residents are subject to a 2% surcharge on top of the standard SDLT rates when purchasing residential property in England or Northern Ireland.
