Frequently Asked Questions
What is Arnona (ארנונה)?
Arnona is Israel's municipal property tax, levied on all property occupants based on property size, use, and location.
Can NAS appeal a property tax assessment?
Yes. We file objections and appeals before municipal committees and administrative courts to reduce unfair assessments.
What are common grounds for Arnona appeals?
Incorrect property classification, measurement errors, changes in property use, and disproportionate rates compared to similar properties.
Can businesses get Arnona exemptions?
Certain exemptions exist for new businesses, non-profits, and properties undergoing renovation. We help clients apply for eligible exemptions.
Does NAS represent clients at Arnona committees?
Yes. We represent property owners and tenants before municipal objection committees and appeal boards.
How much can Arnona be reduced through appeal?
Reductions vary but can be significant — from reclassification savings to corrected measurements that lower annual costs substantially.
Does NAS handle Arnona for large commercial properties?
Yes. We specialize in high-value commercial and industrial properties where classification and measurement errors are common.
Can NAS assist with retroactive Arnona claims?
Yes. We pursue retroactive refunds for overcharges, typically going back several years depending on the municipality.
What role does property measurement play in Arnona?
Property area determines the tax amount. Measurement errors are common and can result in significant overcharges that we help correct.
