For contracts entered into on or after 1 July 2017 the new foreign resident capital gains withholding (FRCGW) rate and threshold will apply to:
- real property disposals where the contract price is $750,000 and above (currently $2 million); and
- the FRCGW withholding tax rate will be 12.5% (currently 10%).
All precedents and commentaries were updated to reflect these changes.
