Municipal Property Tax payments due this May
Property owners are reminded that the Municipal Property Tax (Imposto Municipal sobre Imóveis or IMI) is due for payment throughout May. Unlike in previous years, the tax authority will not send physical payment notices by post, though the payment deadlines remain unchanged.
The municipal property tax (Imposto Municipal sobre Imóveis), known as IMI, is an annual tax on property ownership calculated from the property’s taxable value, with the exact rate set by each municipality. For expats who own property, IMI is a recurring local cost that can vary by location and is often central to policy discussions about housing affordability.
