Change in 3% Stamp Duty surcharge for inheritage outside the UK

Petition Details

To change the law for the additional 3% Stamp Duty surcharge in case of inheritance of the property anywhere in the world when it was completed before moving to the UK.

Additional Information

The additional 3% Stamp Duty if very high for a first time buyers of property in the UK.
It does make people to sell their grandfatherhood in their home country even they dont live or work in that country anymore, paying taxes only in UK, not living in that property.
They are loosing something very preciouses to them and for theirs family.
Or makes very hard to buy property in the UK.
To cancel that law or make it as Stamp Duty as per normal rate will be a big help to everyone who wish to have their own property and stay in the UK.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

You do not pay Stamp Duty if you inherit a property, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
