Fees to register the transfer deed. Our fee order contains guidance on all our fees which are based on the value of the property or the share being transferred. To work out what you need to pay for your application, you can use our fee calculator tool available on our fee order page. Cheques or postal orders are payable to HM Land Registry.
Even if no money is changing hands, you should contact HMRC and check your responsibilities in respect of Stamp Duty Land Tax (England) or Land Transaction Tax (Wales).
