Transfer Duty: Check The Current SARS Schedule

The SARS schedule states that the rates effective from 1 April 2026 are unchanged from the preceding year.

SARS’s published transfer-duty table states that the rates effective from 1 April 2026 are unchanged from the preceding year. The table includes a zero-rate band up to R1,210,000.

Before Preparing A Cost Estimate

Use the official schedule to check the applicable date and calculation. A transaction’s tax treatment depends on its facts, including whether VAT applies. This short source note is not a transfer-cost quotation or advice on a particular transaction.

The original SARS page links to historic rate tables, which can assist when checking an older acquisition.
