What is the real estate
|
The Republic of Croatia has a unified tax rate of 5% for all types of real estate and respective transactions. The tax is defined based on the price of the real estate in the sales contract and the value estimate by the authorized tax authority in charge for the area in which the real estate is located. According to the Law, tax on purchase of real estate is paid by the customer or the seller on behalf of the customer, if the parties agree upon this.
When must the real estate tax be paid?
After conclusion of the sales contract the customer is obliged to register the purchase at the authorized tax authority within 30 days from the day of conclusion of the contract. Public notaries do also submit one copy of the sales contract to the tax authorities.
The customer is obliged to pay respective real estate purchase tax within 15 days from the day of reception of the decision received from the tax authorities on the exact tax amount. If this tax is not paid within this term, interest on arrears are charged for every day of delayed payment.
Does the seller have to pay real estate tax when selling his real estate?
No. Only in case the real estate is sold prior to the termination of three years after it has been purchased and if sold at higher price than originally purchased. In such a case the seller has to pay a 35% income real estate tax on the difference in value of the real estate (purchase and sales price) increased for local taxes, different in every municipality.
