No change to property tax rates in 2026 for the time being

At its meeting on December 17, 2024, the Salzgitter City Council set new property tax rates for 2025. These rates will initially remain in place in 2026.

The property tax rates in 2026:

Property tax A = 390 %.
Property tax B = 540 %.

As things stand, the assessment rates will remain valid in the 2026 calendar year. However, the assessment rates can be changed retroactively from January 1, 2026 until June 30, 2026.

As there is no change to the assessment rates, property tax notices for 2026 are currently only sent out in cases where the street cleaning fees or the assessment bases for property tax have changed.

For all properties for which there has been no change since the last assessment notice was issued, the charges are set by this notice at the level last assessed for the calendar year 2025. They must be paid in the previous amount on the due dates even without a new assessment notice (Section 27 of the Property Tax Act of 07.08.1973, Federal Law Gazette I page 965 in the currently valid version).

The property taxes for 2026 are due on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15. For taxpayers who have opted for annual payment, the property taxes are due on July 1, 2026.

If a direct debit mandate (direct debit authorization) has been issued to the City of Salzgitter, the receivables are identified by the creditor identification number DE98KVS00000159419 and a mandate reference number. The mandate number was communicated separately.
The direct debits will be collected from the specified account on the specified due dates or the next following bank working day.
