Frequently asked questions
How is stamp duty worked out in Australia?
Each state and territory sets its own transfer duty rate table, and applies it to the dutiable value (usually the purchase price). The calculator uses the published tables for all 8 jurisdictions, including owner-occupier rates where they differ, and the Northern Territory (NT) formula.
Do first home buyers pay stamp duty?
Often not, below your state's threshold. For example, NSW exempts established homes up to $800,000 with a concession to $1,000,000. VIC exempts up to $600,000 with a concession to $750,000. QLD exempts established homes up to $700,000 (new homes and vacant land have no cap). The calculator applies your state's rules to your price and shows what the concession saves.
Does the stamp duty calculator include the foreign buyer surcharge?
Yes. In most jurisdictions foreign purchasers pay an additional duty surcharge, from 7% to 9% of the property value depending on the state. The ACT and NT do not levy one.
How up to date are the stamp duty rates, and can I rely on them?
The rate tables come from each state revenue office, and the data date is shown in the footer. First home concessions follow each revenue office's published method (Revenue NSW's tapering saving between $800,000 and $1,000,000, the QRO's $10,000 bands, the SRO's sliding scale). The general rate tables are applied to the price itself rather than per $100 or part of $100, so a price that is not a whole hundred can sit a few dollars under the official figure. Eligibility rules are simplified. Always confirm the final figure with the revenue office before exchanging contracts.
Are regional, commercial and other location-based stamp duty concessions included?
No. Some narrow concessions tied to a location or property use are not modelled, for example the regional commercial or industrial concession and the City of Melbourne new residential concession. Standard residential transfer duty is the same statewide, so those special cases would only ever reduce the figure shown, never increase it.
