13 municipalities have decided to raise the municipal tax

-

Frederiksberg (1.1%), Tårnby (1%), Vordingborg (0.6%), Rebild (0.5%), Herning (0.5%), Slagelse (0.5%), Horsens (0.3%), Aalborg (0.2%), Gentofte (0.17%), Rudersdal (0.15%), Fanø (0.11%), Greve (0.1%), Solrød (0.09%). If you live in any of the earlier-named municipalities, you will pay more tax on your income next year

  • Copenhagen decided to lower the municipal tax by 0.1%, and Fredericia will lower the tax on commercial properties. 
  • While the 13 municipalities decided to increase their local revenue, the other municipalities will suffer because the total amount of financial support from the state will decrease. The way it works is that the total financial support is calculated based on the total local revenue of all the municipalities, so if the local revenue increases, the total support lowers, which means less money is available to share between the 98 municipalities.
