Land registry fee on shared ownership

Hello,<br> <br> I am purchasing a 10% share of a property. The full value is £370,000 so the share I am purchasing is £37,000. Is the land registry fee payable on the full value or just the share I am buying? I've had quotes from several solicitors and some are saying it will be £45 (on share only) and others quote £330 (on full value)?<br> <br> Thank you.&#160;

Hello Nicola -&#160;The fees for recording the purchase of additional shares in a shared ownership property (referred to as &quot;staircasing&quot;) are treated as an application for alteration of the register. The applicable fees depend on whether the application is submitted electronically or by other permitted means.&#160;&#160;These fees are fixed under&#160;<em>Schedule 3, Part I(13)</em>&#160;of the respective Fee Orders.&#160;&#160;<br> <br> If the application is submitted electronically (only possible for conveyancers who are subscribers to our Business eServices) then it is £20 or if submitted by post then it is £40.&#160;
