BIZ is short for Business Investment Zone. This is a business park or shopping centre in which entrepreneurs work together. To keep the area safe and attractive for visitors, for example. Or to further develop it. The entrepreneurs jointly set up an association or foundation which organises activities in the area for this purpose. The entrepreneurs contribute to the costs of these activities. They do so by contributing to the BIZ. The municipality pays the contribution back to the association or foundation as a subsidy.
Do you own or use business premises in the area?
Then you will receive a tax assessment for the BIZ from GBLT. Is the property vacant? Then we will send the tax assessment to the person who owned the property on January 1st.
There is a differing rate for the BIZ tax for properties situated in:
- the centre of Veenendaal;
- covered and uncovered shopping centres.
- the 'Tuinstraat' and along the edges of the BIZ area.
The rates are fixed until 2027. For more information please go to the rates page of the municipality of Veenendaal.
Is remission possible?
For this tax, remission is not possible. You can however pay in instalments.
