Did you know that you could significantly reduce your Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) liabilities through Group Relief? As a property investor or developer with multiple companies within your group, you can now tap into this opportunity with our expert assistance.
SDLT Group Relief is an exemption from SDLT that opens new possibilities for companies within the same group. It allows eligible businesses to transfer properties amongst themselves for commercial reasons without incurring any SDLT implications.
Companies must be body corporates, which includes Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs). There is no rule specifying that the companies must be incorporated or resident in the UK, or in the same country as each other.
To qualify as members of the same group of companies, one company must own at least 75% of the share capital of the other company, or a third company should own at least 75% of the share capital of both the buyer and the seller.
A transaction is eligible for SDLT group relief when the seller and the buyer for land transfers are both members of the same group of companies at the effective date of the transaction, which is typically the date of completion.
SDLT Group Relief is not granted automatically; it requires the purchasing company to actively claim it. The claim must be made by including it in their SDLT return form (SDLT1) and the company should use code 12 to indicate their claim for Group Relief.
