You must pay property tax (OZB) if you are the owner or user of a commercial building. It makes no difference if you live in the Netherlands or not.
The amount of OZB you must pay depends on:
- the value of the commercial building
- the OZB rates applicable in gemeente Haarlemmermeer
The municipality determines the value of your business premises each year on 1 January. This is the property valuation (waardering onroerende zaken – WOZ). The municipality determines the OZB on the basis of the previous year’s WOZ.
