What is the seller stamp duty for properties sold on 22nd April 2022?

12 views
If you sold a residential property in Singapore on 22nd April 2022, the Seller’s Stamp Duty (SSD) applicable would depend on how long you had owned the property before the sale. For residential properties purchased on or after 11 March 2017 and disposed of before 4 July 2025, the SSD rates are:
- Sold within 1 year of purchase: 12%
- Sold within 2 years: 8%
- Sold within 3 years: 4%
- Sold after 3 years: No SSD payable
The SSD is levied on the higher of the selling price or market value. This tax aims to discourage short-term property speculation in Singapore. If your holding period exceeded three years by 22nd April 2022, you would not have needed to pay SSD.
