Paying property tax (OZB) on a property

Do you own a (holiday) house or flat in the Netherlands? If so, you must pay property tax (onroerendezaakbelasting– OZB) on it every year. Property tax is part of the municipal taxes and is billed by your municipality. The municipality sets the amount. Tenants do not pay OZB.

Property tax is a percentage of the waardering onroerende zaken – WOZ. The WOZ is the value of your home or holiday home according to the Wet waardering onroerende zaken (Property Valuation Act). The municipality sets the amount of OZB annually. Therefore, it varies from one municipality to another.

Are you unable to pay your municipal taxes? Then ask your municipality for an exemption. You can be granted an exemption from paying part of the taxes, or all of the taxes. The municipality decides for which taxes you can be exempt from paying. It also determines whether you are eligible for an exemption.

OZB is included in the municipal tax bill. This is usually sent out in the first 2 weeks of February.

Municipality of Hoogeveen: Paying property tax (OZB) on a property

Please note: do you own a (holiday) house or appartment in the Netherlands? If so, you must pay property tax (OZB). You do not have to be registered in a municipality for this.

The amount of your OZB depends on the value of your home, business premises or land (WOZ value). You can find the WOZ value on your municipal tax assessment notice and in the appraisal report.

The municipality determines the value of your home or business premises on the first of January each year. This is the valuation of immovable property (WOZ). The municipality uses the WOZ value of the previous year to determine the amount of property tax. Are you renovating your property after the value reference date? Then this is included in the determination of the WOZ value.

You can pay your assessment in several installments by direct debit. For information about the current rates, please contact the municipality:  +31528291911 or info@hoogeveen.nl .

Do you disagree with the WOZ for your home? Or with the OZB? If you do you can object online. You're able to do so up to 6 weeks after the date on the assessment notice.
