Brussels Parliament A-325 Submitted

Direct payment of property tax reductions to Brussels tenants

Official title: Voorstel van ordonnantie tot wijziging van het Wetboek van de Inkomstenbelastingen 1992 en de Brusselse Huisvestingscode teneinde de bewoners van een woning rechtstreeks de verminderingen van de onroerende voorheffing toe te kennen die verband houden met hun persoonlijke situatie of gezinssituatie.

Status: The proposal has been submitted and is waiting to be considered by parliament. (parliament: ‘Tabled’)

In plain language

  • In Brussels, tax reductions for dependent children or disabilities will be paid directly to tenants by the tax administration, possibly even automatically.
  • This applies to Brussels tenants entitled to family-related tax relief and to landlords, who will no longer need to apply for or pass on the discount.
  • As a tenant, you will no longer have to rely on your landlord to receive your tax benefit, as the money will be paid directly into your own bank account.
