Download or read book Stamp Duty Land Tax written by Ann Humphrey and published by Spiramus Press Ltd. This book was released on 2007 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2003, stamp duty land tax (SDLT), an entirely new tax applying to acquisitions of UK land, was introduced. Property lawyers and their tax colleagues had to learn a new set of rules and procedures as they familiarized themselves with the new regime. Several practical and legal difficulties emerged, and the system continues to change to accommodate these and other problems as they arise. This book takes a practical approach, looking at SDLT as it applies to particular transactions and dealing with issues which the property lawyer is likely to face when advising a client, whether acting in a straightforward purchase of freehold land or negotiating the structure of a complex commercial sale or acquisition. This second edition includes guidance on the many changes that have recently been made to the SDLT process, in particular to completing and filing the SDLT return itself, as well as dealing with the additions to SDLT law, such as HM Revenue & Customs' new powers to combat avoidance.

This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '. . . fine compilation of essays dealing with international land and property taxation issues. . . . the book is well researched and readable in presenting the tax systems. . . The book would be more than appropriate as additional reading for a master's level class in taxation. It could supplement an international tax class, or be used in a state and local tax class to present contrasts and complexities of the issue in other countries.' – Malichi van Tassell Tor, The Journal of the American Taxation Association '. . . this is quite an achievement. Thanks to the nature of the case studies and the contributing authors the volume is inherently international in its scope and should appeal to practitioners, teachers, and students interested in land and property taxation, international economic development, and land and real-estate studies.' – Scott Orford, Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design 'I have found the book International Handbook of Land and Property Taxation a very meaningful and enlightening book to read. The editors Bird and Slack have developed a theoretically sound framework, backed by economic conceptions in order to attempt a comprehensive treatment on tax administration on land and property. Speci?cally and yet more broadly, they have to their credit managed to throw light of sufficient depth on key issues that include the tax base and rate, the tax burden and the tax policy decision makers. The international dimension is just as imperative to consider and the editors have effectively succeeded to render an in-depth treatment in this regard. This imperative is also a unique and important contribution to empirical real estate studies within the tax discipline, and the editors should be highly commended in this effort. I am very encouraged with the academic rigor of this book publication. . .' – David Ho, Journal of Property Investment and Finance Taxes on land and property exist all over the world in many forms and are an important source of finance for local governments. The extent to which local governments have control over property taxes is often an important determinant of their ability to make autonomous expenditure decisions. This comprehensive Handbook explores case studies of land and property taxation in 25 countries (five in each of five regions – OECD, central and eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America), and focuses on the potential contributions of the property tax to the revenues of urban and rural governments and to more efficient land use. Introductory chapters highlight the diversity in the application of land and property taxes among the countries. Major policy alternatives with respect to taxing land and property are discussed, including the choice of tax base, exemptions, methods of determining the tax base, tax rates, differential treatment of different classes of property (such as farms, residences, commercial properties), and the process of tax administration. Other taxes levied on land, such as land transfer taxes, development charges and unearned increment taxes, are also reviewed, as is recent experience with property tax reform in a number of countries. This major reference work will provide a valuable resource and necessary addition to the libraries of government officials, municipal associations, property assessors, international agencies, teachers and students of public finance.
Download or read book A Practical Guide to Stamp Duty Land Tax in England and Northern Ireland written by Suzanne O'Hara and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHAT THE BOOK COVERS This publication is not designed as a comprehensive guide to the legalities of Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT); there are other (very good) books for that. Rather, it attempts to boil the topic down to the key areas that a conveyancing solicitor needs to know. The material is split into short topics and the headline points are brought to the fore, with the aim of creating an easily referenced step-by-step guide to the SDLT charging provisions and their practical application in everyday scenarios. In particular: What constitutes a land transaction Effective dates and when SDLT is chargeable What and how much is chargeable Rates of tax, including classification of residential and non-residential property and areas of uncertainty and potential tax saving opportunities After establishing the basics, the book provides a comprehensive analysis on areas of particular relevance to conveyancers (as well as highlighting some potential risks). This includes: 3% higher rates for additional dwellings Available reliefs; including First Time Buyers Relief and Multiple Dwellings Relief Transactions involving leases Partnership transactions 15% rate for acquisition of dwellings by non-natural persons WHY YOU NEED THIS BOOK Up until relatively recently, SDLT was a pretty straightforward consideration. In the last few years, however, it's become an increasingly complex area and busy solicitors often have neither the time nor the inclination to delve into the fine print. A medical analogy might be apt. When it comes to SDLT, the role of the solicitor is akin to that of a GP; they have a huge knowledge of ailments and can cure most, but occasionally they'll have to refer to a specialist. This book will help with those quick diagnoses, whilst also signposting when it's time to call in the surgeon. This publication is written in simple language, with a focus on stripping back the complexities of the SDLT legislation. The result is a practical guide covering the main areas of interest and potential risk for conveyancers, to pick up and reference with ease. The publication includes everyday examples to help illustrate how the rules apply in practice and checklists to aid the application of the rules. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Suzanne O'Hara established and heads the Moore (NI) LLP specialist SDLT advisory service which provides specialist property tax advice to solicitors, private clients, accountants & other professionals.
