Terms & Conditions
Last updated: March 2026
1. About These Terms
These terms and conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Stamp Duty Direct website ("Website") and our SDLT reclaim services ("Services"). By using our Website or engaging our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
Stamp Duty Direct ("we", "our", "us") is a trading name registered in England and Wales.
2. Our Services
We provide a stamp duty land tax (SDLT) reclaim service. This involves:
- Assessing whether you may have overpaid SDLT on a property purchase
- Preparing and submitting claims to HMRC on your behalf
- Handling all correspondence with HMRC relating to your claim
- Processing your refund once received from HMRC
3. Eligibility Check
Our free eligibility check provides an initial indication of whether you may have a valid SDLT reclaim. This assessment is based on the information you provide and does not constitute tax, legal, or financial advice. A positive eligibility result does not guarantee a successful claim.
4. Authority to Act
Before we submit a claim to HMRC, you must sign our authority to act form. This authorises us to correspond with HMRC on your behalf in relation to your SDLT reclaim. You may withdraw this authority at any time by notifying us in writing.
5. Fees
We operate on a no win, no fee basis:
- If your claim is unsuccessful, you pay nothing
- If your claim is successful, our fee is a percentage of the refund received, as set out in our fee agreement
- The fee agreement is a separate document that you sign before we begin work on your claim
- No upfront costs or hidden charges apply
6. Your Obligations
When using our Services, you agree to:
- Provide accurate and complete information about your property purchase
- Respond to reasonable requests for additional information or documents in a timely manner

8. Limitation of Liability
Our Services are limited to SDLT reclaim assistance. We do not provide general tax, legal, or financial advice. While we use reasonable skill and care, we cannot guarantee the outcome of any claim submitted to HMRC, as decisions are made by HMRC at their discretion.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability to you in respect of any claim arising from or in connection with our Services shall not exceed the amount of fees you have paid to us.
9. Cancellation
