What is a Stock Transfer Form (J30)?

A Stock Transfer Form (form J30) is the document used to transfer ownership of fully-paid shares in a UK company. It records the seller, the buyer, the shares being transferred, the consideration paid, and the stamp duty position. Required for the legal transfer to be effected and registered.

When do you need one?

Whenever shares in a UK private or public company change hands — a sale, a gift, a transfer on death, an exit on a leaver event, or any other transfer of legal ownership. The form is completed by the transferor and submitted to the company alongside the share certificate; the company then updates its register of members.

What does it cover?

Transferor and transferee details, the number and class of shares being transferred, the consideration paid (which drives the stamp duty calculation at 0.5%), Certificate 1 declarations for exempt transfers (no money or money's worth), Certificate 2 declarations for low-value transfers, and the transferor's signature.
