About the Webinar

Revenue NSW's comprehensive update to their Practice Note on options to purchase land has introduced crucial clarifications which must be understood to avoid costly duty miscalculations. In this session, attendees will gain an understanding of the updated guidance and its practical implications for structuring and advising on option transactions, including:

  • The duty on beneficial ownership cand its effect on options
  • Understanding the Commissioner's distinctions between put options, "true" call options, and conditional contracts to transfer
  • How options differ from pre-emptive rights to purchase land under the updated Revenue NSW approach
  • When the grant, assignment, nomination, or novation of options triggers transfer duty obligations
  • Practical examples and scenarios demonstrating Revenue NSW's approach to calculating duty on complex option structures
  • Why NSW's transfer duty treatment of options differs significantly from other Australian jurisdictions
  • Strategies for structuring option agreements to optimise duty outcomes while ensuring compliance with Revenue NSW requirements
