Is Your SDLT Process Ready for May? What conveyancers need to know about the 2026 Finance Bill

Change is coming to the way firms handle SDLT submissions, and while the full impact will vary from team to team, it’s something every conveyancer should have on their radar before May.

For most practices, SDLT has long been a familiar, end‑of‑transaction step: reliable, predictable, and rarely the part that causes delays. But with new expectations on the horizon, firms may soon find that this once‑simple stage needs a closer look.

We’re not here to overwhelm you with detail. Instead, we’ve created a short downloadable guide, which highlights what’s shifting, why it matters for day‑to‑day workflows, and how conveyancers can stay ahead without adding pressure to an already busy post‑completion process.

If your day to day tasks include SDLT in any way, now’s a good moment to take stock. Grab our guide for all the details.
