Municipality of Alphen-Chaam: paying property tax (OZB) on a property
Please note: do you own a (holiday) house or flat in the Netherlands? If so, you must pay onroerendezaakbelasting OZB (property tax). You do not have to be registered in a municipality for this.
How much OZB you have to pay depends on the:
- value of the property;
- the OZB rates that apply in your municipality.
The municipality determines the value of your house every year on 1 January. This is the waardering onroerende zaken WOZ (valuation of your home or holiday home). The municipality uses the WOZ value from the previous year to determine the amount of OZB due.
The OZB rates for the municipality of Alpen Chaam can be found on the website.
Payment
Each year, you receive a OZB tax assessment. This tax assessment states the amount you have to pay. You have to pay this amount within 6 weeks. Are you unable to pay the amount at once? Then you can:
- pay in terms: you request a direct debit via the municipality. The municipality will debit the amount from your bank account in parts (every month).
- request a payment plan from the municipality.
Remission
Are you unable to pay the OZB tax assessment? Then you can ask the municipality not to charge you (in part). This is called remission. Contact the municipality of Alphen Chaam for more information.
Moving
Are you planning to move later in the year? If so, you still have to pay the OZB assessment determined by the municipality on 1 January.
Do you disagree with the WOZ? Or with the OZB? Then you can file your objection online. You need DigiD to do so.
You can also submit a written objection. More information can be found on the municipality's website.
