au.duty.vic.ppr Applies to a dutiable value up to $550,000 where the buyer moves in within 12 months and lives there 12 straight months. Available to anyone, not only first home buyers; the page states no residency condition. Concessional scale: $2,870 plus 5% above $130,000 to $440,000, then $18,370 plus 6% above $440,000. 1 Jul 2026 26 Aug 2026 SRO Victoria, page updated 24 Jun 2026 — confirmed against the publisher, both worked examples recomputed
au.duty.vic.transfer Unchanged for contracts entered into on or after 1 July 2021. The $960,000–$2,000,000 band is a flat 5.5% of the whole dutiable value, not of the excess.

au.duty.qld.transfer Unchanged since 21 September 2012.

RevenueSA1 record

au.duty.sa.transfer RevenueSA publishes this table without an effective date, so it is held for 2026-27 only. First home buyer relief is uncapped but applies only to a NEW home or vacant land to build on — an established home attracts full duty, which is the reverse of the eastern states. Foreign buyers pay an additional 7%. 30 Aug 2026 RevenueSA, read 30 Aug 2026, and independently reproduced at ten prices by the SA.GOV.AU property transfer fee calculator

au.duty.wa.transfer The general rate has applied to residential and commercial land since 1 July 2022.

Stamp Duty Act 1978 (NT), Schedule 1 clause 1(2)1 record

RecordAppliesReadHow
au.duty.nt.transfer The only jurisdiction that publishes a formula rather than a table. Below $525,000 duty is D = 0.06571441V squared + 15V, where V is one thousandth of the dutiable value. Above it the rate is a flat percentage of the WHOLE value — 4.95%, then 5.75% at $3,000,000 or more, then 5.95% at $5,000,000 or more — so duty jumps at each threshold rather than sliding. The NT charges no foreign purchaser surcharge. A Territory home owner discount also existed, worth up to $18,601 below a $650,000 threshold. It is still printed as section 89AAB of the Act, which makes it look current, but section 88A caps the whole Division at conveyances first executed on or before 30 June 2021 — so it has been closed for five years and is not applied here. It is worth knowing for one group only: section 89AAB(3) lets the Commissioner reassess duty out of time in order to grant it, so someone who bought between 8 February 2019 and 30 June 2021 and never claimed it can still ask the Territory Revenue Office. 30 Aug 2026 NT Legislation, Stamp Duty Act 1978 reprint REPS013 read 30 Aug 2026 — Schedule 1 clause 1(2)

au.duty.tas.transfer Applies to transactions on or after 21 October 2013, assessed on the greater of unencumbered value or price paid.

Taxation Administration (Amounts Payable1 record

au.duty.act.transfer The ACT does not set its rates in the Duties Act; they are remade by determination each year, and this one commenced 1 July 2026. These are the Table 2 rates. An eligible owner occupier is charged the whole of Table 1 instead, which is not a first home test. Above $1,455,000 the rate is a flat $4.54 per $100 of the WHOLE amount, so duty falls as a price crosses that threshold. The ACT charges no foreign purchaser surcharge on conveyance duty; its foreign ownership surcharge is a land tax. 1 Jul 2026 30 Aug 2026 ACT Legislation Register, DI2026-155 read in full 30 Aug 2026 — Tables 1, 2 and 3
