Where two or more people are jointly entitled to land (whether a single chargeable interest or more than one chargeable interest) and there is a partition or division of the land this is not treated as an exchange. The giving up of a share in one part of the land is not treated as chargeable consideration for the acquisition of a share in another part.

‘Jointly entitled’ means:

• in England & Wales, beneficially entitled as joint tenants or tenants in common
• in Northern Ireland, beneficially entitled as joint tenants, tenants in common or coparceners.
