Apply for a Repayment of the Non-UK Resident Stamp Duty Land Tax Surcharge in England and Northern Ireland

Check if you can and how to apply for a repayment if you’re a non-residential purchaser of property in England and Northern Ireland.

Who Can Apply

You or your estate agents can apply for a repayment of the surcharge paid on a property if all the purchasers are individuals and have spent 183 days in the UK in any continuous 365-day period:

Starting no more than 364 days before the effective date of the transaction.

Ending no more than 365 days after the effective date of the transaction.

The effective date of the transaction is usually the completion date. You must apply for the repayment within 2 years of the effective date of the transaction.

What Information You’ll Need

To apply for a repayment, you will need the following details:

Bank Account Information: UK bank account and sort code details for the recipient of the payment.

Unique Transaction Reference Number (UTRN): From the Stamp Duty Land Tax return submitted when the property was purchased.

Effective Date of Purchase: Usually the completion date.

SDLT Amount Paid: Including the non-resident surcharge.

Purchase Price: If it’s a freehold property (or other ‘consideration’ if the transaction included goods, works, services, debt release, etc.).

Total Lease Premium: If it’s a leasehold property.

Net Present Value Calculation: Used when the SDLT was calculated if it’s a new lease.

If you’ve already reclaimed the higher rate on additional dwellings, you’ll need the amount of SDLT due after the refund. You may need to ask your solicitor or conveyancer for these details.

If You Are an Agent Acting for the Purchaser

Estate Agents will need a document signed by the purchaser confirming authority to apply for a repayment on their behalf. This letter of authority should specify if the repayment is to be paid into an account other than the purchaser’s and include the relevant account details. You’ll need to upload an image of this signed document with your online application.

How to Apply for a Repayment

Your application requests HMRC to amend the Stamp Duty Land Tax return for the property. You’ll be asked to certify that the amendment is correct.

There are two ways to apply depending on whether you have a Government Gateway user ID and password:

With Government Gateway: Use your user ID and password if you’ve registered for Self Assessment or filed a tax return online.

Without Government Gateway: Apply via email if you do not have a Government Gateway user ID.

Ensure to save your application and return to it later if needed. Only apply by email if you do not have a Government Gateway user ID.

Need Assistance?

If you find the application process challenging or prefer professional assistance, consider contacting the best estate agents in the UK. They can provide expert guidance and help streamline the application process.

London stocks fall as investors await new data, Rolls-Royce shares rise

Britain’s FTSE 100 index fell on Tuesday amid a broad-based sell-off as investors await the release of a range of global economic data due later this week, while Rolls-Royce shares rose after the engineering company forecast profitability growth, Reuters reports.

The domestic-focused FTSE 250 midcap index (.FTMC) was down 0.6 per cent. The exporter-focused FTSE 100 index (.FTSE) fell 0.6 per cent to a two-week low for the day. Among the FTSE 350’s major sectors, the personal consumption goods sector (.FTNMX402040) led the way, while Burberry Group (BRBY.L) fell 2.7 per cent after HSBC lowered its target share price. Andrew Jones, portfolio manager at Janus Henderson Investors, said:

It’s worth reminding ourselves that (for) the last couple of weeks, markets have been quite strong with the expectation that inflation’s finally starting to come off in most places. Rather than being any specifically negative news coming out… (its) a bit of a pause having had (that) rally.

What is the Role of a Rental Consultant?

A rental consultant is a professional working within the real estate industry whose role is to help tenants with the rental process. As such, they can assist with negotiating rents, match tenants to potentially appropriate properties and answer clients’ questions.

Responsibilities of a Rental Consultant

The responsibilities of a rental consultant are likely to include helping residential landlords to find suitable tenants; presenting houses, apartments, and other properties to prospective tenants; and promoting available properties via social media and a range of other advertising methods.

Rental consultants may also coordinate and schedule lease applications, execute new rental agreements and organise the moving-in process, manage compliance and regulatory issues, and support the legal and general advisory requirements connected with a large real estate portfolio.

What are the Requirements to be a Rental Consultant?

For those wishing to be a rental consultant, a bachelor’s degree is advantageous. Applicants to this role should also have proven skills in managing leases regarding high-volume properties and a solid understanding of rental regulations and compliance issues. Founder and CEO of Caridon Property Mario Carrozzo is aware that prospective rental consultants should also have an expert knowledge of rental agreements, be well-informed, and be a proficient networker with excellent interpersonal and communication skills.

On-the-job training is a common pathway for rental consultants seeking to develop their skills, and this training may form part of work experience in a property management or leasing firm or an undergraduate internship. Such training may occur prior to being hired or during the early years of employment.

What Makes for a Great Rental Consultant?

Successful rental consultants should be personable and have a comprehensive knowledge of the residential, industrial or commercial industries and an understanding of practices in the real estate field and its associated terminology. The possession of these skills help rental consultants to interact with clients efficiently and effectively.

Membership of the United Kingdom Apartment Association

While not mandatory, those wishing to pursue a career in rental consultancy may find it beneficial to apply for membership of the United Kingdom Apartment Association (UKAA). There are several advantages to becoming a member of this organisation, including access to industry events and new research; networking, training and education opportunities; and marketing assistance.

Membership of the UKAA can be applied for on an individual basis, or an employer may choose to purchase membership for their entire business.

“A disused four-storey stairwell at the back of a branch of Starbucks in south-west London has become the latest peculiar piece of property to go on sale in London’s feverish housing market.

Yours for £20,000 or thereabouts, the oddity will go under auction on Tuesday – with agents suggesting its appeals include a long leasehold, full vacant possession and “development potential”.

Quite what form that potential takes requires some imagination. The online video tour shows the space littered with cardboard boxes, a bicycle, a tired potted plant and a number of fire extinguishers.

The jaunty soundtrack – more usually heard layered over promotional clips for sleek apartments or cosy cottages – attempts to draw the viewer’s attention from the broken windows. But, as an optimistic estate agent may say, it is flooded with natural light and, being a minute’s walk from the Thames in the centre of Twickenham, its location has undeniable appeal.”
