Municipality of Berkelland: paying the sewage charge

Please note: you only have to pay  rioolheffing (sewage charge) if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.

In determining the sewage charge, the municipality makes a distinction between a user and an owner of the property. The sewage charge therefore consists of an owner component and a user component. Therefore 2  rates apply.

You have to pay sewage charge every year.  You can find the sewage charge rates at the website of Gemeentelijk Belastingkantoor Twente. 

Payment

You will receive a letter from Gemeentelijk Belastingkantoor Twente stating the amount of the sewage charge. The letter will state how and by what date you must pay.

Paying on time

Pay on time to avoid having to pay extra charges. 

Exemption

You can ask whether you are entitled to an exemption in respect of (part of) the charge. That is referred to as kwijtschelding.

Do you disagree with the sewage charge? You can object.
