Landholder duty: duty requirements

What you need to provide if your transaction is a landholder duty transaction.

A landholder is any corporation or unit trust scheme that has an entitlement, either directly or through a linked entity, to land assets in Western Australia with an unencumbered value of $2 million or more.

An acquisition is subject to landholder duty if it is an acquisition of a significant interest which is

  • a 90% or greater interest in a landholder that is listed on the ASX or other prescribed financial market or
  • a 50% interest in a landholder that is not listed on the ASX or other prescribed financial market.

An acquisition is also subject to landholder duty if a person who has a significant interest acquires a further interest.

All parties to a landholder transaction must complete a foreign buyers duty declaration.
