Do I need to pay any stamp duty if my husband transfers his share of property to me due to our divorce? If I am to sell the property subsequently, will I incur Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD)?
Buyer's Stamp Duty (BSD), Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty (ABSD), and Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD) are not payable on the transfer of property resulting from matrimonial proceedings if the remission conditions are met.
If you intend to sell the property subsequently, SSD is not payable if the property is sold after the holding period.

My wife and I purchased a private residential property on 1 Oct 2005. On 10 Mar 2022, my wife transferred her half share of the property to me by way of gift. As a result, I became the sole owner of the property. I sold the property on 1 Sep 2022. As I have been an owner and occupant of the property since 1 Oct 2005, do I need to pay Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD) on the sale?
