?Frequently asked questions
Does the UK have an annual land tax?
No. There is no recurring national land tax. Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is charged once, on purchase, on a banded scale, and a land value tax is only a policy proposal. This tool applies a rate you set, so you can model any land-value charge.
What about Stamp Duty (SDLT)?
SDLT is a one-off transaction tax with progressive bands, not an annual charge. For SDLT use the purchase price and the band rate; this tool gives a flat effective rate on a value.
What rate should I use?
Whatever rate you are modelling — a proposed land value tax, a local charge, or an effective SDLT rate. There is no fixed UK figure, so the field is editable.
What value do I enter?
The land value the rate applies to. Buildings on the land are usually taxed separately (Council Tax / Business Rates).
