Online SDLT Forms

The SDLT forms will be available for online submission starting on the 6th of April 2005, in conjunction with the new tax year. You will need to register with both the government gateway and the Inland Revenue on and for the 6th of April.

The files that you will be able to electronically submit are; SDLT1, SDLT2, SDLT3 and SDLT4. The payment will still be manual and remains how it currently is.

Following user feedback we will be updating the service with new functionality. This includes:-

• The ability to print off your Stamp Duty Land Tax Return before inserting an 'Effective Date of Transaction' at Question 4 on form SDLT1. You can now print the return for your records, BUT you must complete the 'Effective Date' before submission to the Inland Revenue. Please note that until a date is inserted your printed copy will display an 'Incomplete Status' and without this date your submission will fail. Please do not insert this date manually, as it will lead to significant delays in processing your return.
• Amendment to Question 2 on the SDLT1 form. We have added an additional value 'A' to cover any conveyance transfer with lease involvement.
• Adding the new version of SDLT4.
• Amendment to Question 2 on SDLT4. This is now a drop down box to allow multiple selections.
• 2-Dimensional Barcode which captures all entries from the form and allows it to be scanned. This allows the form to be processed more quickly and efficiently.
  

The client will still need to sign the declaration form
