412,215 property and car owners in Sofia have already paid their local taxes for 2025 in full and have thus received a 5% discount. By April 30th, anyone who pays the full amount for vehicle tax and building tax will benefit from this discount on their taxes, the Sofia Municipality's "Municipal Revenues" Directorate reminded.
Sofian residents have had the opportunity to pay their local car tax since January 4th, and for real estate and garbage tax - since January 18th of this year.
Since the beginning of the year, a total of 454,326 individuals and legal entities have paid their local treasury partially or fully. Of these, 88,356 owners have paid old debts, on which they have also been charged interest. By law, the repayment of local taxes occurs in the order of their occurrence. When you have unpaid taxes for previous years, once you pay, the system first considers their coverage.
