Stamping Share Transfers: Share Classes and Property-Holding Companies

Share-transfer stamping needs the full consideration, parties, target-company property and constitution-based share classes before relief selection, review and payment.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Start and identify the document

At myTax Portal select Stamp Duty and log in as an individual or business. On Overview choose Stamping > Stamp Share Transfer Documents. Enter an optional internal file reference and choose the document title, illustrated as sale/purchase agreement, share transfer or declaration of trust. Tick the trust-intent box only if holding shares for a beneficial owner. Retrieve a related old stamping record by Document Ref No. or skip if none applies.

Electronic format, signing and consideration

Select physical or electronic format; the electronic route asks how the offer and acceptance were made. Its tooltip says an electronic offer/acceptance by any party makes a multi-party instrument electronic. Record signing location/date, the indicated unavailable-date option for unsigned documents, and the Singapore receipt date for an overseas document. Total consideration is in Singapore dollars and includes equivalent monetary value of non-cash benefits, not just cash paid.

Transfer parties and target-company details

Enter transferor and transferee profiles, identities and names; add additional parties where required. The guide distinguishes foreign and entity identifier choices. Supply target identity, name, incorporation date and company type: private without Singapore property, private with Singapore property, or SGX-listed. Property-owning targets require property/land details and market value; retrieve property addresses by postal code and add additional properties. Otherwise continue to financial/transfer details.

Financial information and every share class

The screenshot records account date, immovable-property assets, other assets and total liabilities, with net asset value shown as property plus other assets less liabilities. Share-class details must follow the target constitution or memorandum/articles. State whether one or multiple classes and include each class, priority in capital distribution, paid-up capital/premium, issued shares, shares transferred and surplus entitlement percentage; use Add for another class. The numerical illustration is not a prescribed valuation for other companies.

Relief, review and payment

The service indicates potential remission/relief/exemption based on entered details; select a qualifying type or continue if none applies. Review the summary, edit errors, check charges and tick the declaration. Proceed using a payment mode, retaining Document Ref No.; the guide illustrates offline acknowledgement and GIRO acknowledgement. Its instruction ties stamp-certificate availability to successful payment. The walkthrough does not state every share-duty rate, valuation rule or property-holding-entity condition.
