Stamp duty
State and territory governments impose taxes on a range of paper and electronic transactions. These taxes are variable across state and territories, and can be called stamp duty, transfer duty or general duty.
Taxable transactions include:
- motor vehicle registration and transfer
- insurance policies
- leases and mortgages
- hire purchase agreements
- transfers of property (such as businesses, real estate or shares).
