Property tax: what reduction or premium are you entitled to?
Did you know you could benefit from a reduction or premium on your property tax? Below are the main situations that may entitle you to a benefit.

Possible reductions
- Dependent children: if your household included at least two children domiciled in the property on 1 January (and entitled to child benefits), you are entitled to a 10% reduction per dependent child.
Person with a disability: if, on 1 January, the head of household or a household member domiciled in the property is officially recognised as disabled or as a severely disabled war veteran, you are entitled to a 20% reduction.
Good to know:
In both cases (dependent children or disability), the tenant's situation may also give rise to a reduction in property tax, which can then be deducted from the rent. The request must be submitted by the landlord via Opens in new windowMyTax.brussels.- Modest home: if the non-indexed cadastral income of your property is €745 or less, you are entitled to a 25% reduction.
- Listed or protected property: if your property is listed as protected heritage or included on the conservation list, the reduction can range from 25% to 100%, depending on the protected portion.
- You can find full details on reductions in Opens in new windowthe property tax information sheet (only available in French and Dutch).
