About This Stamp Duty Calculator

This calculator gives a quick estimate of Irish stamp duty based on the purchase price and whether the property is residential or non-residential. It is designed for planning only and should not replace professional legal or tax advice.

Residential stamp duty rates (2026). The current residential rates used here are 1% on the first €1,000,000, 2% on the portion between €1,000,000 and €1,500,000, and 6% on any amount above €1,500,000.

Non-residential transactions. Non-residential property, including some commercial premises, agricultural land, and development sites, is commonly estimated at 7.5% in straightforward cases. Specific reliefs, exemptions, surcharges, and special rules can still apply.

Who usually pays stamp duty? In most property transactions, the buyer is responsible for stamp duty. In practice, the filing and payment are normally handled by the buyer's solicitor through Revenue's e-Stamping system.

First-time buyers. This calculator does not assume a blanket first-time buyer exemption, because standard residential rates generally still apply. Always check current Revenue guidance and any related Help-to-Buy rules before relying on a final figure.

This calculator is for illustration only and does not constitute tax or legal advice. Always verify the final amount with a solicitor, tax advisor, or Revenue before completing a purchase.
