Transfer Tax Calculations

For all municipalities in Québec, except the cities of Montreal, Québec, and Gatineau:

  • 0.5% on the portion not exceeding $58,900
  • 1% on the portion exceeding $58,900 but not exceeding $294,600
  • 1.5% on the portion exceeding $294,600

Municipalities have the option to adopt a regulation allowing a tax rate higher than 1.5% on the portion of a property’s price exceeding $500,000. Therefore, for properties sold above this threshold, it is essential to check if the applicable municipality has set a higher rate. However, this rate cannot exceed 3%, except in the case of the City of Montreal.
