    Is it possible to transfer titles from one company to another without the cost of stamp duty and exit tax if directors are same in both companies…

    Hi Chris,

    Not an accountant so disclaimer applies.

    As far as I know you will cop the lot; stamp duty, vendor duty and there will be no exemption from CGT as the property is held in a company name.

    I don’t think so, but go to the website of the office of state revenue in your state, there may be further information available there.

    I’m no accountant either, but the only possible way that I can think of is if the company with the assets is a subsidiary of the other company, as rollover relief provisions may apply when transferring assets to a holding company – at least as far as CGT goes, not sure about stamp duty.

    Otherwise not that I know of – and the shareholders being the same would be more relevant than the directors being the same.
