Using the Stamp Duty Calculator

triConvey's Stamp Duty Calculator will check the following information from your matter to calculate Transfer Duty, concessions, AFAD and grants: 

  • if an Unconditional Date has been entered and, if so, it will use this date; 
  • if no Unconditional Date is entered, it will use the Contract Date
  • if no dates are selected, it will assume today’s date
  • the entered dutiable value
  • the Concession Type selected; 
  • the Foreign Interest Fraction and Value for the FPD entered; and 
  • if the Grant Type selected is First Home Owner Grant.

4.    Select your Concession from the Concession Type dropdown (if it applies).

Tip:  The concession will be applied to the Dutiable Value (or Dutiable Value Override Amount, if entered).  The deduction amount will populate in less Concession and the sub-total will populate in Concession Duty.
