Determination of dike association contributions from 2025, property tax from the Bremerhaven tax office and contribution notice from the Bremen Dike Association on the right / left bank of the Weser

In the city of Bremen, the property tax and the dyke association contribution of the Bremen dyke associations on the right/left bank of the Weser are assessed by the tax office in a combined assessment. The central tax office in Bremerhaven - Bremen assessment office is responsible for this.

New property tax assessments are also issued whenever the contribution rates of the dyke associations have changed without the amount of property tax having changed.

When the property tax reform comes into force on 1.1.2025, all property owners will receive new property tax assessments at the beginning of 2025.

If you have issued a SEPA direct debit mandate, you do not need to do anything else. The new amount will be collected automatically on the due date.

If you transfer the property tax yourself, e.g. via a SEPA standing order, please take the changed amounts into account.

• Ownership, co-ownership or heritable building right to a property in the municipality of Bremen (not in Bremerhaven).

You will receive a notice for property tax and dyke association contribution from the Bremerhaven tax office in January 2025 or at another time.

As a result of the property tax reform, the previous unit value will also be replaced by the property tax value for determining the dyke association contributions.
