Stamp Duties and Transfer Fees
The stamp duties payable by Purchaser on contracts are 0.15% of the value of the property up to €170.860 and 0.20% for over €170.861. The contract should be stamped within a period of thirty (30) days from signing of Agreement.
The property transfer fees are payable to the Land Registry and are calculated to the property's market value:
Value of Property € Transfer fee Rate
Up to 85.430 3%
From 85.431 - 170.860 5%
Over 170.860 8%
If the owners are two or more, each owners share starts with the above scale, so there is a substantial saving if the sale price is quite high.
