  • Start

On any sale or transfer of dutiable property eg. goodwill, intellectual property, etc duty is payable on the dutiable value of each item of property as determined at the time of sale or transfer.

The dutiable value of dutiable property is the greater of:

  • the consideration (normally the purchase price) paid for or apportioned to each item of property, or

  • the unencumbered value of each item of property.

Depending on the nature of the transaction or the relationship of the parties involved the Chief Commissioner may require the person, who is liable to pay the duty, to provide evidence of value of the property the subject of the transfer.
