How LBTT works in Scotland

Land and Buildings Transaction Tax replaced Stamp Duty in Scotland and is collected by Revenue Scotland. It is progressive: you pay each rate only on the slice of the price that falls within that band, not on the whole price. So a higher price nudges only the top slice into a higher rate.

Residential LBTT bands

  • Up to £145,000: 0%
  • £145,001–£250,000: 2%
  • £250,001–£325,000: 5%
  • £325,001–£750,000: 10%
  • Above £750,000: 12%

Buying an additional property — a buy-to-let or second home — adds the Additional Dwelling Supplement (ADS) of 8% on the full purchase price, on top of the progressive LBTT above. First-time buyers may qualify for relief, and the numbers here are indicative only.
