WOZ and property tax
If, on 1 January, you are the owner and/or user of a property or a piece of land, you will have to pay property tax (OZB) for that year, for which you will receive a municipal tax demand. The amount of property tax payable is a percentage of the assessed market value or ‘WOZ’ value for the property or piece of land. You can request a valuation report online.
Value reference date/WOZ period
The WOZ value is the resale value of the property on 1 January of the previous year: the value reference date. If the property has been built during the course of the year or has been modified, this change in value will be taken into account in the valuation.
Valuation report
The Municipality sets the WOZ value each year, amongst other things by looking at the sales prices of comparable housing or shops. If you would like to understand the basis on which your WOZ value has been calculated, you can apply online for your valuation report at MijnOverheid. More information about MijnOverheid and how to activate your account can be found in the MijnOverheid brochure (PDF, 3.3 MB). You can also request a valuation report by calling 14 040 or sending an e-mail to gemeente@veldhoven.nl. You must state in your e-mail the name of the person in question, the address of the property and the tax demand reference number.
Price
The municipal council sets the property tax percentages each year and records them in a property tax regulation.
