Submit objection to WOZ assessment

What is it?

If you disagree with the WOZ assessment (because you think the WOZ value is too high or too low) or with the assessment (because you are not an owner and/or user) you can object. You cannot object to the level of the rates. Before you object, you can also call us at (040) 289 38 93. Our staff will be happy to check with you.

How does it work?

You must file an objection with the levy officer within six weeks of the date of the assessment notice. You can file your objection in two ways:

  1. Written: you can send your letter for the attention of the levy officer to: Postbus 10101, 5660 GA Geldrop.
  2. Digital: you can submit your objection using your DigiD using the button below. Businesses can object using e-recognition.

DigiDSubmit objection digitally

Objecting by e-mail is not possible.

You must sign the objection and include your name and address, the type of tax, the tax year, the assessment number, the reason(s) for your objection and a date.

If you are filing an objection on behalf of someone else, you will need an authorization from that person.

Please note that if you file an objection, you must still pay the assessment on time.

How long does it take?

You must object within 6 weeks after the decision is made. This is the statutory objection period.

If your appeal arrives late, it will not be considered and will be declared inadmissible. If you submit it by mail, you are on time if you have posted it before the end of the deadline and it is received no later than one week after the deadline. If you are late, you can claim excusable failure to meet the deadline if you were not reasonably able to object or appeal in time.

A different decision period applies to tax cases. The deadline depends on when you file your objection. In general, the decision on the objection must be made within the calendar year in which you file your objection. However, if you file an objection in the last six weeks of the calendar year, the decision on the objection will follow within six weeks of receiving your objection.

There is no independent hearing committee for tax cases. If you nevertheless need a hearing, you can indicate this in your appeal.
