FAQ
What is SSD?
Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD) is a tax imposed on the seller of residential property in Singapore if the property is sold within 3 years of purchase. It was introduced to discourage short-term property speculation.
What are the current SSD rates?
For residential property purchased from 11 March 2017: Year 1: 12%, Year 2: 8%, Year 3: 4%. No SSD if held for more than 3 years. Industrial property has different rates (15%, 10%, 5%) over 3 years.
How is the holding period counted?
The holding period is calculated from the date of purchase (completion/legal title transfer) to the date of sale. A day is counted once the calendar year changes — year 1 is months 1-12, year 2 is months 13-24, year 3 is months 25-36.
Are there any SSD exemptions?
Yes. SSD may be remitted in special circumstances such as: death of a co-owner, divorce proceedings, or certain company restructuring. Check with IRAS or a property lawyer for specific circumstances.
