Why do you pay commuter tax?

You pay commuter tax if you own an additional residence in a municipality where you do not live. This additional residence must be suitable for habitation, and you must be able to use it yourself or with your family for 90 days or longer. It does not matter whether you actually use the residence during that period. The municipality uses the commuter tax to fund local services, such as roads and street lighting.

How much commuter tax do you pay?

The tax varies by municipality. For example, there may be a fixed commuter tax amount. Or the amount may depend on the WOZ value or the market value (WEV) of your home.
