Paved lots

On 30 June 2011, President of the Czech Republic Vaclav Klaus signed an amendment to the Real Estate Tax Act. The changes introduced by the amendment apply exclusively to entrepreneurs who own paved lots, i.e. tracts of land designated as “other area” or “built-up area and courtyard” with paved surface (no vertical structure thereon).
The amendment introduces two tax rates for paved lots. The tax rate in the amount of CZK 1 per square meter shall apply to plots used in primary agriculture, forestry and water management. The rate in the amount of CZK 5 per square meter shall apply to lots used for other business operations.
The amendment shall take effect on 1 January 2012 and apply to the tax duties for 2012.
