Dog tax
Service Description
The dog tax is a municipal expense tax. It is levied for the keeping of dogs. The owner of a dog is the person who has taken a dog in his own interest or in the interest of his household or business.
If a municipality imposes a dog tax, dog owners are obliged to register or deregister their dog.
Who should I contact?
To your parish or city council.
After registering the dog, dog tax tags are issued, which must be returned when the dog is deregistered. The dog tax tag must be carried and presented upon request.
What are the fees?
The tax rate varies from place to place.
The municipal statutes regularly provide for exemptions and reductions, for example for dogs kept for commercial purposes (e.g. dog breeding or trade) and for guide dogs, herding dogs and working dogs.
