Closing Costs & Stamp Duty in Cayman (Overview)

What is “stamp duty”? In Cayman this is a one-time government transfer tax paid on most property purchases (there’s no annual property tax). The rate can vary based on transaction specifics and exemptions. Use the estimator as a rough planning tool and confirm the exact amount with Lands & Survey and your attorney.

How Foreign Buyers Purchase Property

Cayman generally allows foreign ownership without residency requirements. Most buyers work with a local attorney and a licensed agent to complete due diligence and conveyance.
