How the One Sophia Stamp Duty Calculator Works

Buyer’s Stamp Duty is computed on the commercial scale: 1% on the first $180,000, 2% on the next $180,000, 3% on the next $640,000, 4% on the next $500,000 and 5% above $1,500,000. Every band is shown, including any the price does not reach, so the marginal structure is clear. At the illustrative $3,000,000 the duty is $119,600, an effective rate of about 4.0%.

The Duty Position at One Sophia

No Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty arises on a commercial purchase, and commercial property carries no Seller’s Stamp Duty, whatever the holding period. Both appear in the calculator as not applicable, so the full position is visible in one place. The stamp duty and GST page covers each duty.

GST on a Purchase at One Sophia

GST at 9% applies to the price; on a building under construction it is charged on each instalment of the payment scheme. At the illustrative $3,000,000 that is $270,000 across the purchase, for a price including GST of $3,270,000. An operating GST-registered company may generally recover it as input tax as incurred, while a non-operating company would not usually start until TOP, subject to the rules set by IRAS.

What the One Sophia Duty Calculator Leaves Out

Legal and conveyancing fees, valuation, bank charges and the duty on a later lease sit outside it, and IRAS assesses duty on the higher of the price or the market value.
