Goal and impact
The aim is to efficiently and uniformly calculate tax amounts, the impact being related to the tax liability of citizens and businesses. The outcome of the algorithms is the taxable amount. This is formally determined by the levy officer.
Considerations
Without these simple algorithms, it is not possible to calculate tax amounts for citizens and businesses efficiently but also uniformly.
Human intervention
The outcome of the algorithms is determined each time by the levy officer. To do this carefully, several layers of control take place, for example by doing spot checks.
Risk management
No
Legal basis
Municipalities Act, Water Boards Act, AWR, WOZ Act.

Data
Technical design
The most common method is a calculation rule, consisting of multiplying a yardstick by a rate. In some cases, it is graduated, with the calculation rules applied also depending on the yardstick.

- The algorithm calculates the level of municipal taxes on the basis of fixed calculation rules. It uses data on the tax base, the benchmark and the corresponding rate. The algorithm performs these calculations automatically so that the tax amount for citizens and businesses can be determined efficiently and uniformly.Last change on 9th of December 2025, at 12:19 (CET) | Publication Standard 1.0
