As far as I know the amount payable has been reduced and it will be scrapped next year, but we still have to pay immovable property tax this year. I seem to recall that the payment slips had arrived in the post by this time last year. I haven't received one yet. Should I have by now?

The 2016 bills will be sent out sometime in Sept 2016.

There is a 75% reduction if you pay before end of 31 Oct. next year it is scrapped.

Many thanks. I thought they came in late July/early August last year. Maybe my memory is playing tricks on me, or perhaps they are sending them later this year.

They are sending them later due to the change in the law and its implementation.

Ahem; I have never received anything... Does it mean I am in trouble - foreclosure sale next?

Means you need to go to the tax office and register your property if not done so.

Maybe back taxes to pay if not done and when you want to sell they'll make you pay then plus penalties.

Where would this office be located in the Larnaca region?

2 years ago a bunch of guys came to measure every inch of the house/property. I thought this would be something to consider the taxes, but never heard anything since then.

I believe the tax office i Larnaca is situated just behind the fire station on the corner of the major cross road.
