Stamp Duty Calculator
Stamp duty in the UK was first introduced on June 28, 1694, during the reign of William III and Mary II. It is a tax levied by the British government on property transactions. If you purchase a house, land, or partial title in England or Northern Ireland, you must pay stamp duty if the transaction price exceeds a certain amount.
