What is Stamp Duty Reserve Tax (SDRT) and Stamp Duty?

Stamp Duty and SDRT are UK taxes that may be payable on certain share transfers. SDRT is payable on share transfers where no physical document is used while Stamp Duty is payable when a physical document is used. As a general rule, if no money is changing hands then the transaction is not liable for SDRT, and Stamp Duty is not payable on transactions for £1000 or less.


More information about Stamp Duty and Stamp Duty Reserve Tax is available on the HM Revenue & Customs website. For example, more details of exemptions are detailed in chapter 2 of the Stamp Office Manual
