eStamping compulsory from 1 June 2011
The committee notes the circular below from Revenue announcing that eStamping filing and payment will be compulsory from 1 June 2011.
Any solicitor/firm not already registered with the Revenue Online Service (ROS) should arrange to do so well in advance of that date (the registration process takes some time to complete).
Solicitors/firms may also wish to review their internal accounting procedures before that date. Although the circular states that all transactions from 1 June must go through eStamping, the committee understands that some transaction types cannot be accommodated on Revenue’s system, and these will continue to be processed manually – Revenue is in the process of drawing up a list of those transactions.

Please note that you must be registered for the Revenue Online Service (ROS) to use eStamping. Revenue will organise a series of nationwide information seminars for practitioners during the spring, and this schedule will be published shortly.
