Application should be made to the Revenue Service for Property Tax.
Property tax is a type of tax paid for real estate such as land, acreage, and buildings, and every citizen who owns such real estate is obliged to pay property tax. Those who will pay property tax can apply to the Property Tax unit of the relevant municipalities. Every individual who owns real estate is obliged to fill out and declare forms and declarations. For the Property Tax Declaration, one must apply to the municipality's Revenue Service with a photocopy of the title deed, photocopy of the identity card, for buildings, additionally a photocopy of the occupancy permit, address information, tax number, and a revenue stamp for that year.
Property tax is paid in two equal installments, with the first installment paid in March-April-May, and those who wish can pay the entire amount in the first installment. The second installment is paid in November.
Late Installments Incur a Late Payment Penalty.
The taxpayer who does not pay the property tax pays a late payment penalty for the delayed installments at the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 6183 on the Collection of Public Receivables, for each month. Retirees, widows, and orphans can pay their taxes at a discounted rate if they own only one residence and use it solely for the purpose of living. Those who do not make payments on time can make their payments by applying with a petition. When the property is transferred to another person, they can request a document from the relevant authority of the municipality stating that there are no outstanding debts. Additionally, they must submit a petition to the municipality to have the property tax declaration removed from their name for the sold property.
