Because of missing property tax declarations, the tax offices in Saxony had carried out around 135,000 estimates by the end of November. In a few cases still to be processed, further estimates were carried out, the Ministry of Finance announced on request.
Because of the property tax reform that came into effect this year, owners of real estate and land were required to submit a property tax return by the end of January 2023. Anyone who did not submit their return on time received a reminder letter. A late submission may result in a late surcharge being imposed. If the declaration is not submitted at all, the tax offices estimate the basic value.
