Indicative only. Agency fees are usually paid by the seller. Confirm the rates and your eligibility with a notary and the official sources below.

How the calculation works

Stamp duty on a standard purchase is calculated as 5% of the purchase price. For first-time buyers the calculator applies 0% on the first €175,000 and 5% on the rest.

Notary fees are shown as an indicative range of 1% to 2.5% of the price. Agency fees are usually paid by the seller. Non-EU buyers who need an AIP permit also pay an application fee, which the calculator adds as an estimate.

Rules, thresholds and eligibility change, and special schemes can apply, so treat the result as an estimate and confirm with a notary or the Commissioner for Revenue before you commit.
