The Municipal Tax Management Body approved a resolution to initiate the collection of the new tax, initially affecting 169,105 taxpayers among houses and vacation homes. The total amount of these provisional assessments amounts to 24,942,117.66 euros.
This figure represents a slight reduction compared to initial forecasts, which anticipated billing 175,203 units (including 170,585 occupied or vacant homes and 4,618 vacation rentals) and projected revenue of 25.14 million euros. The difference accounts for a decrease of 6,098 bills and 0.8% in the amount.
Assessments for hotels, apartments, bars, cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, hospitals, professional offices, and other establishments will be issued shortly. The council had initially estimated a total revenue of approximately 32.14 million euros, a figure close to the service cost set at 32.15 million.
The set amounts vary by property type: 108.45 euros for vacant houses, 149.33 euros for occupied homes, between 131.69 and 403 euros for vacation rentals, and higher amounts for commercial and hospitality establishments, reaching up to 1,714.2 euros for restaurants. Hospitals will have a tax of 170.06 euros per bed.
Bills are expected to reach taxpayers this June, either by postal mail or email. Payment can be made through the virtual tax office, the municipal website, or ATMs of various banking entities. Those who do not receive their bill can obtain a copy from the virtual office, at taxpayer service offices (by appointment), or by calling 010 (from Las Palmas) or 928 446 000 (from outside the municipality).
