Record of clients’ instructions on stamp duty
Conveyancing
04/12/2015
As stamp duty certificates are no longer required in deeds, the committee recommends that solicitors obtain a written record of instructions as to stamp duty.
A suggested precedent record sheet is available on the precedents page in the members’ area of the website (No. 30). This may then be retained on file by way of a future record, in addition to the copy printout available from the Revenue e-stamping system.
