How Victoria charges duty and land tax

Transfer duty

General (non-principal-place-of-residence) scale, for contracts on/after 1 July 2021. ANOMALY: the $960,000-$2,000,000 bracket is NOT marginal - duty is 5.5% of the WHOLE dutiable value, so duty jumps at $960,000 and the bases array has no base for that bracket. Above $2,000,000 duty is $110,000 + 6.5% of the excess. A separate concessional PPR scale applies only up to $550,000 and is not the general scale.
