2. Manual mode: Use the dropdown list of dutiable transactions.
3. Browse the list: Select the appropriate transaction from the full list.

Once the relevant transaction has been selected, you will need to

• enter the date of the transaction

• enter the number of no double duty transactions

Click Continue to proceed to the next section. After clicking Continue, an estimate of the duty payable will be displayed. If you have made an error when entering information in the first section you can click the Edit button, update the necessary fields and then click Continue again to proceed. The estimated duty payable will recalculate if required and display on the screen.

From the dropdown list, select all types of dutiable property involved in the transaction and provide the required details based on your selection.

If the dutiable property includes land, certain details about the receiving party are mandatory. You can complete the lodgment of the transaction without these details, but you won't be able to print the certificate of duty until these details have been provided.

If you make an error when typing the details, you can edit the details or delete the entry and reenter the details.

Once the interested parties have been added, click Continue to proceed to the next section.

• If you're providing a licensed valuation, enter the required details, upload a copy of the valuation and any other supporting documentation.

Select the property type from the dropdown list. Based on your selection, further fields must be completed. Provide as much information and supporting documentation as possible to assist in the valuation process.

Once you've entered the details, click OK to return to the transaction details.
