TAS rules
What’s different in Tasmania.
If you priced a Tasmanian first home before July 2026 expecting no duty, the numbers may have changed. Re-run the estimate for your settlement date before you commit to a price.
- The established home exemption has ended: first home buyers of established homes up to $750,000 had a full exemption for transfers settling from 18 February 2024 to 30 June 2026. It isn’t available for transactions settling after 30 June 2026.
- When duty is due: within three months of the dutiable transaction, usually the settlement date. The buyer pays it.
- Building or buying new: first home buyers building a new home or buying a newly built one may be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant. Check the current amount and conditions with the State Revenue Office.
- Pensioners downsizing may be eligible for a duty concession, and foreign investors pay a duty surcharge.
- Check the current rules for your settlement date with your conveyancer, as Tasmania’s first home relief has changed several times.
Checked against the State Revenue Office of Tasmania on 8 Nov 2026. Rules change, often at budget time, and the rules that apply are the ones in force on your contract or transaction date.
