should the tax be leviable


Explanation:
droits de mutation immobilière = real estate transfer tax
(see "real estate transfer tax", http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_estate_transfer_tax)

Taxes are "levied". So if the tax is "exigible", it can be levied, and is therefore "leviable".

agree  Attorney DC Bar: Yes, sounds like a transfer tax. And 'chargeable' is definitely more common than 'leviable'.
