Do first home buyers in VIC pay stamp duty?+
No — first home buyers purchasing a property valued up to $600,000 pay zero stamp duty in Victoria. A partial concession reduces duty for properties between $600,001 and $750,000. Properties over $750,000 attract full stamp duty at standard rates.
Is there a foreign buyer surcharge in VIC?+
Yes — foreign purchasers of Victorian residential property pay an additional 8% surcharge on top of standard stamp duty rates. Foreign buyers are also subject to the Absentee Owner Surcharge of 2% on the land tax applicable each year they own the property.
How long do I have to pay stamp duty in VIC?+
Stamp duty in Victoria must be paid within 30 days of settlement. Your conveyancer or solicitor will typically arrange this as part of the settlement process. Late payment attracts interest charges from the State Revenue Office.
What is the VIC off-the-plan stamp duty concession?+
Buyers of off-the-plan properties in Victoria may be eligible for a concession that reduces the dutiable value to only the land value at the time of contract signing, excluding the construction component. This can significantly reduce your stamp duty on new builds.
Is VIC stamp duty calculated on purchase price or market value?+
Stamp duty is calculated on the greater of the purchase price or the market value of the property. In most arm's-length transactions these are the same, but if you purchase from a family member at below market value, the market value is used for duty purposes.
