Refund of SDLT surcharge upon sale to Ltd company?
We moved from our main home in late 2019 to a new home, so we paid an additional 3% stamp duty for our new home, and we have rented out our previous home since then.
Recently we have sold our previous home to a Limited company (we are the directors of the company, but the house was sold at the market value and Ltd company paid 3% stamp duty as well) and we are thinking of applying for repayment of the higher rates of Stamp Duty Land Tax but looking at the form on gov.uk website they are asking for the first and last name of the main buyer for our previous home and there is no provision of mentioning Ltd company name/details.
Has anyone applied for a repayment of the higher rates of Stamp Duty Land Tax while selling the property to a Ltd company? If so, what should we mention in the form where they ask for the name of the buyers?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
MS
