Kiinteistöveroprosentit

Kiinteistöveroprosentit are tax rates applied to the taxable value of real estate in Finland. These percentages are determined annually by each municipality. The taxable value of a property is calculated based on its assessed value, which is influenced by factors such as location, size, and building type. There are different categories of real estate, and each may have a different kiinteistöveroprosentti. For example, residential buildings often have a lower tax rate than commercial or industrial properties.

The purpose of the kiinteistövero is to provide municipalities with a stable source of income to fund local public services. The rates must fall within ranges set by national legislation. Municipal councils decide on the specific percentages for their area each year. Property owners receive a tax assessment based on the determined rates and their property's taxable value. The revenue generated from kiinteistövero contributes to services such as schools, healthcare, and infrastructure maintenance. Property owners are legally obligated to pay this tax. The exact percentages can vary significantly from one municipality to another.
