地方税收-税率

税率是房地产的税。新西兰几乎所有的业主都必须支付房价。那些这样做的人被称为利率缴纳者。租出房产的人不直接支付房费,但在设置租金时会考虑房价的成本。一些房产免征税,例如政府土地和铁路土地。体育场等一些房产的评级可能只为 50%。毛利人的土地,难以确定所有权和费率的责任,也可以获得特殊待遇。

地区当局可以使用 1998 年《评级估值法》编制的估值,根据土地、年度价值或资本价值,以三种不同的方式评估财产价值。估值过程由估值总监督。每个地方当局在与社区协商后,可以决定使用哪种基础。

理事会可以混合使用这些不同的方法,根据持有权的价值评估费率,例如土地价值的一般利率和目标利率的资本价值。

理事会还可以按评级单位征收固定费用(即每块土地,但有些例外情况是,如果共同拥有多个相邻地块,或多个住宅单位在一个地段上),通常称为统一的年度一般收费。还有其他方法,例如每个厕所或小便池收费,或每立方米供水收费。

2002 年《地方政府(评级)法》是管辖立法,为确定费率提供了若干备选办法,使地方当局可以使用一般税率、目标费率和/或统一年度一般费用的组合。

LGRA 中规定了各种机制,以便各理事会能够通过社区、特定群体或类别的利率来增加收入。

  • 般费率 — 整个社区承担特定功能的成本。根据理事会每年制定的 “美元美分” 公式,这些税款按房地产价值进行评级。利率缴纳人支付的金额根据房产价值而有所不同。每个理事会决定是根据土地价值、资本价值还是房产的年度价值评估费率。
  • 目标费率 — 这些费率旨在为一个职能或一组职能提供资金。可用于计算目标费率的因素有:土地价值、改进价值、资本价值、年度价值、土地总面积、铺设、封闭或建造的土地面积、土地保护面积、建筑物面积、连接数、水柜和小便池的数量、分别使用/有人居住的部件以及提供服务的范围.
  • 差别费率 — 一般费率可以在不同的基础上设定,理事会可以考虑财产价值、位置、面积、使用和《资源管理法》允许的活动。
  • 统一的年度一般费用 — 这些是适用于每个评级单位的固定费用,无论房产价值如何。
  • 水费率 — 一些议会计量用水量并相应地收费。

如果任何目标利率以每个评级单位的固定金额计算,则理事会不能通过这些目标利率和统一的年度一般费用的结合收取超过其总利率收入的 30%。

地区委员会拥有与地区当局相同的评级权力。
