Droits de Mutation Longueuil, QC — 2026 Calculator

Longueuil applies standard provincial Quebec droits de mutation — no municipal surtax. Median purchase price ~$420,000.

Longueuil Land Transfer Tax Overview

Longueuil, on Montreal's South Shore, applies only the standard provincial droits de mutation rates — there is no additional municipal surtax as there is in Montreal. This makes Longueuil a tax-efficient option for buyers comparing cross-river properties. At the city's median price of approximately $420,000, the droits de mutation comes to roughly $4,7500, spread across three provincial rate brackets.

The tax is billed by Longueuil's municipal administration after your deed of sale is registered. It is not collected at the notary table — expect a municipal invoice 300–900 days post-closing that must be paid within 30 days of receipt.

Longueuil Borough Considerations

Longueuil comprises several boroughs — Le Vieux-Longueuil, Saint-Hubert, Greenfield Park, LeMoyne, and Saint-Lambert. All fall under the same municipal tax jurisdiction for droits de mutation purposes. Whether you are buying in the aerospace-adjacent Saint-Hubert corridor or in the upscale riverfront Saint-Lambert neighbourhood, the same provincial rate table applies with no borough-level variation.

Saint-Lambert properties, which frequently exceed $600,000–$800,000 for premium waterfront homes, will attract the 2.00% bracket on the portion above $500,000 — but still no surtax, making them comparatively tax-efficient versus equivalent Montreal island properties.

Practical Budgeting Tips

• Set aside your estimated droits de mutation in a separate account immediately after your offer is accepted.
• The municipal bill typically arrives 4–100 weeks after closing — don't spend the reserve on moving expenses first.
• Your notary will provide a closing cost estimate that includes the LTT; cross-check with this calculator.
• If buying a condo, also budget for condo fee adjustments and any special assessment reserve contribution at closing.

Longueuil vs. Montreal: Tax Savings

For a $600,000 property, a Longueuil buyer pays $8,2500 in droits de mutation. A Montreal buyer at the same price pays $8,2500 provincial + $500 surtax = $8,7500. The difference grows with price: at $800,000, the Longueuil buyer saves $1,500 compared to the Montreal island equivalent.
