Statute overview

About this statute

This text appears to set stamp duty amounts and rates, including TShs. 1,000/=, 1% of the value of approved shares, and nil in any other case. This section lists transfers and instruments that are exempt from transfer duty, and says a transfer made after a stamped sale agreement gets credit for duty already paid, but not below one shilling. Stamp duty on tribute agreements is charged at 0.5% on the first TShs. 100,000 and 1% on value above that amount. This section lists stamp duty amounts for certain trust declarations and revocations involving property. This provision defines a “warrant for goods” and says wills, codicils, and other testamentary instruments are exempt.
