Wales vs England: key differences

  • Wales uses Land Transaction Tax (LTT), not Stamp Duty
  • Wales nil-rate threshold: £225,000 (higher than England's £250,000)
  • No first-time buyer relief in Wales — but the higher threshold helps
  • Higher rate surcharge for additional properties: from 5% (Dec 2024)
  • LTT is administered by the Welsh Revenue Authority, not HMRC
