What type of tax do you have to pay?
It depends on your situation whether you will receive a tax assessment for water purification charge or pollution charge. Is your home or company connected to the sewage system? Then we will send you a tax assessment for water purification charge. Is there no connection to the sewage system? Then your wastewater enters the surface water. In that case, we will send you a tax assessment for pollution charge. The rate for both types of tax is the same.
How much do you have to pay?
How much you have to pay depends on a number of things. The most important is whether it concerns a home or a company.
