1. Stamp Duty when buying property
For standard residential-property transfers, current Stamp Duty rates are 1% on consideration up to €1 million, 2% on the portion over €1 million up to €1.5 million, and 6% on the portion over €1.5 million. Special higher-rate and multi-apartment rules can apply.
Check Stamp Duty and Local Property Tax obligations during conveyancing and before closing/filing deadlines.
Revenue; solicitor/conveyancer usually coordinates transaction documents but tax obligations remain with parties.
Property price/details, PPSN/tax reference and transaction documents.
Do not apply the standard residential rate automatically to every transaction: non-residential, multiple-property, mixed-use and relief/exemption cases have different rules.
