Stamp duty questions

What does this calculator estimate?

It applies the standard transfer duty rate published for the selected state or territory. If you select first-home buyer, it applies only simple full exemptions and published value bands. Complex concessions, surcharges and shared ownership need an official assessment.

Is stamp duty based on the contract date?

Usually. State rules use the contract or liability date to choose the thresholds. If rates changed around your contract date, use the official source linked in the result.

Can I use this for an investment property?

Yes. Choose “Rent it out” to keep first-home owner-occupier relief out of the estimate. Investment properties usually use the general rate, with separate rules for foreign purchasers and other special cases.

Where can I confirm a ACT result?

Open the official revenue authority link shown below the result. Your conveyancer or solicitor can confirm the dutiable value and the amount payable at settlement.

Planning estimate only

This tool does not decide eligibility, include foreign purchaser surcharges, account for shared ownership or replace a conveyancer’s duty statement. Keep the official link beside your budget and confirm the amount before you sign or settle.
