How it’s worked out
Up to $525,000, NT stamp duty comes from a formula rather than brackets, so the rate rises smoothly with the price. Above $525,000 it’s a flat percentage of the whole value: 4.95%, 5.75% or 5.95% depending on the price. Homeowners and investors pay the same. The Territory Revenue Office also has its own calculator (opens in a new tab) if you’d like to check the figure.
First home buyers and new homes
There’s no stamp duty concession for first home buyers in the Territory. A house-and-land package bought new from a builder may be exempt from duty until 30 June 2027, and the HomeGrown Territory Grant gives up to $50,000 towards buying or building a new home, for contracts up to 30 September 2027.
When it’s paid
Duty is due within 60 days of signing, or at settlement if that comes first. We arrange the payment as part of your settlement.
