Changing rates for unpaid taxes

Recent changes in local tax law have resulted in adjustments to the rates in which late fees and interest refunds are calculated on taxes. Starting from January 1st, 2026 the rates will be calculated as listed below.

Not paying taxes on time results in late fees. If the tax is paid within one month past the deadline, the late fee will be calculated at 2.8%. If the tax is paid more than one month late, the late feel will be calculated at 9.1%.

A tax refund is given to those who overpaid their taxes, which can also earn refund interest, which is calculated at 1.3% per year.

If it is ever difficult to pay taxes, be sure to contact the Tax Payment Division to discuss what options there may be.
