stamp duty reserve tax

stamp duty reserve tax
A tax introduced by the Finance Act 1986. It is not technically stamp duty but a separate tax imposing a charge of 0.5% on agreements to transfer chargeable securities for consideration.
As a general rule, the payment of stamp duty on a transfer pursuant to the relevant agreement will "frank" the underlying SDRT charge on that agreement to transfer.
