Property transfer duty in Tasmania is administered by the State Revenue Office Tasmania (SRO Tas) under the Duties Act 2001. It is a flat $50 up to $3,000, then a set of marginal rates stepping up to 4.5% on the portion of value above $725,000. The duty is charged on the dutiable value — usually the contract price.
TAS uses the following bracket structure for the standard duty rate (a $50 base carries through the upper bands):
| Dutiable value | Standard rate |
|---|---|
| $0 – $3,000 | $50 flat |
| $3,001 – $25,000 | $50 + 1.75% over $3,000 |
| $25,001 – $75,000 | $435 + 2.25% over $25,000 |
| $75,001 – $200,000 | $1,560 + 3.5% over $75,000 |
| $200,001 – $375,000 | $5,935 + 4% over $200,000 |
| $375,001 – $725,000 | $12,935 + 4.25% over $375,000 |
| Above $725,000 | $27,810 + 4.5% over $725,000 |
Tasmania does not offer a separate owner-occupier "home concession" — owner-occupiers and investors pay the same standard rates. Since 1 July 2026 there is no first home buyer duty relief either (the former established-home exemption expired on 30 June 2026). Foreign buyers, however, pay an additional 8% Foreign Investor Duty Surcharge on top of the standard duty.
Tasmania no longer offers a first home buyer duty exemption. The temporary full exemption for established homes valued up to $750,000 expired on 30 June 2026 and was not extended — transactions settling after that date pay full standard duty regardless of first-home status. First home buyers building or buying a new home may instead be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant, worth $20,000 for eligible transactions from 1 July 2026 ($10,000 base plus a $10,000 additional grant, subject to the passage of legislation); the previous $30,000 grant window closed on 30 June 2026. The grant is a cash payment, not a duty reduction.
For details of the ended exemption and current first home buyer assistance, see State Revenue Office Tasmania: First Home Buyer Duty Relief (exemption ended 30 June 2026).
Tasmania levies a Foreign Investor Duty Surcharge (FIDS) of 8% of the dutiable value when a foreign person acquires residential property, in force since 1 April 2020. It is charged in addition to the standard property transfer duty and collected by the State Revenue Office Tasmania. Australian citizens and permanent residents are not foreign persons for the purposes of this surcharge.
| Scenario | Investor | Owner-occupier | First home buyer |
|---|---|---|---|
| $600,000 property | $22,498 | $22,498 | $22,498 (no FHB relief since 1 Jul 2026) |
| $800,000 property | $31,185 | $31,185 | $31,185 (no FHB relief) |
| $1,000,000 property | $40,185 | $40,185 | $40,185 (no FHB relief) |

Tasmanian property transfer duty is charged by the State Revenue Office Tasmania (SRO Tas) on the dutiable value of any property purchase. It is a flat $50 up to $3,000, then a tiered set of marginal rates on the value above $3,000: 1.75% to $25,000, 2.25% to $75,000, 3.5% to $200,000, 4% to $375,000, 4.25% to $725,000, and 4.5% on the portion above $725,000 (with the $50 base carried through). Owner-occupiers and investors pay the same standard rates.
Yes. Tasmania's temporary first home buyer duty exemption for established homes valued up to $750,000 expired on 30 June 2026 and was not extended — transactions settling after that date pay full standard duty regardless of first-home status. First home buyers building or buying a NEW home may instead be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant, worth $20,000 for eligible transactions from 1 July 2026 ($10,000 base plus a $10,000 additional grant, subject to legislation); the previous $30,000 grant window closed on 30 June 2026.
Tasmanian property transfer duty is payable within three months of the dutiable transaction. Your conveyancer normally pays SRO Tas at settlement using funds from your loan and deposit. Late payment attracts interest at the rate published by SRO Tas.
Yes. Tasmania levies a Foreign Investor Duty Surcharge (FIDS) of 8% of the dutiable value on residential property acquired by a foreign person (in force since 1 April 2020). It is charged on top of the standard transfer duty and collected by the State Revenue Office Tasmania. Australian citizens and permanent residents are not foreign persons for this surcharge.
Tasmania's top transfer duty rate is 4.5% (on the value above $725,000). Combined with lower median property prices, the absolute dollar amount of duty for ordinary buyers is generally less than in the larger mainland states. Note that Tasmania no longer offers first home buyer duty relief — the former exemption for established homes up to $750,000 expired on 30 June 2026. (Foreign buyers do pay an additional 8% Foreign Investor Duty Surcharge.)
No. Stamp duty paid on an investment property in Tasmania is not immediately deductible against rental income. It is added to the cost base of the property and reduces capital gains tax when the property is later sold. Owner-occupiers cannot deduct stamp duty at all.
