Stamp duty when purchasing shares

Just wondering are you liable to pay stamp duty when buying shares from someone(ie not a stock broker) & how do you pay this. I'm thinking of buying them from a relative but just want to be clear on what 'extras' I might need to pay. I know abut CTG on profit, my query relates to buying them as don't want to be stuck with a big bill if I sell them.

Thanks

you must pay 1% if Irish shares and .5% if UK.

Ask your stockbroker if they will do a special deal for you. it is possible to pay yourself. Registrars might be able to help.

thanks for reply but i'm not buying from stockbroker so how would you think i could pay it?

Thanks

I don't know. Try phoning revenue

If the consideration is more than €1,000, you fill in a form SD4 ([broken link removed] (.pdf)) and send to Revenue with the 1%. Can also be done online via ROS.
