How stamp duty is calculated in Northern Territory

The Northern Territory uses a unique formula rather than brackets: D = (0.06571441 × V + 15) × V ÷ 1000, where V is the price in thousands. This produces a smoothly rising curve rather than the step-jumps you see in other states.

Northern Territory does not currently offer a stamp duty concession or exemption for first home buyers. The First Home Owner Grant may still apply for new builds — check the Territory Revenue Office website.
