Additional foreign acquirer duty residential land interactive help

Additional foreign acquirer duty (AFAD) imposes a further 7% duty on the dutiable value of relevant acquisitions of AFAD residential land.

Use the AFAD residential land toolkit to learn about self assessing AFAD on relevant transactions.

Answer the following questions to determine if AFAD applies.

Note: If a transaction is subject to multiple foreign acquirers, you should answer the questions separately for each to determine the total foreign acquirer interest that AFAD will apply to. Alternatively, when AFAD liability is triggered by one acquirer, the whole transaction is subject to AFAD.
