About the Singapore Stamp Duty Calculator
BSD on residential property is tiered: 1% on the first $180,000, 2% on the next $180,000, 3% on the next $640,000, 4% on the next $500,000, 5% on the next $1.5 million and 6% above $3 million (IRAS, from 15 February 2023).
ABSD (from 27 April 2023): Singapore citizens pay 0% on a first home, 20% on a second and 30% on a third; permanent residents 5%, 30% and 35%; foreigners 60%; entities 65%. SSD on private homes bought on or after 4 July 2025 is 16%, 12%, 8% or 4% if sold within 1, 2, 3 or 4 years (12%, 8%, 4% over 3 years for earlier purchases).
The formula
BSD = Σ tier × rate; ABSD = price × rate by profile; SSD = price × rate by holding period
