I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that qualification for the Young Trained Farmers Relief from Stamp Duty (Section 81/Section 81A and currently Section 81AA Stamp Duties Consolidation Act 1999) is dependent upon satisfaction of several conditions. Holding a One Year Certificate in Agriculture forms only one part of the qualifying conditions and possession of this qualification alone does not or did not meet the statutory requirements for entitlement to the relief as set out in the Sections above. The full requirements are set out in Revenue booklets SD2, SD2A and SD2B. For further clarification the customer may contact Revenue Stamping District, Dublin Castle or telephone 1890 48 25 82.
