Current UK BTL stamp duty rates (England & NI)

From 31 October 2024, the Higher Rate for Additional Dwellings (HRAD) surcharge was raised from 3% to 5%. This applies to every BTL purchase, second home, holiday let and limited-company residential property acquisition.

From 1 April 2025, the nil-rate threshold for standard residential purchases reverted to £125,000 (from the temporary £250,000), so BTL purchases of any value are now charged on the full price.

Scotland uses LBTT with an 8% Additional Dwelling Supplement. Wales uses LTT with a 4% higher rate. This calculator covers SDLT only — Portfolio Pilot's full app handles all three jurisdictions.
