Hundesteuer, Ermäßigung und Befreiung beantragen

• § 2 Absatz 1 Sächsisches Kommunalabgabengesetz (SächsKAG) - Rechtsgrundlage für Kommunalabgaben (in Verbindung mit der jeweiligen Satzung der Gemeinde)
• § 7 Absatz 2 SächsKAG – Gemeindesteuern

If you are dependent on a dog because of your disability, you are usually exempt from dog tax.

However, the requirements are different in each municipality. An exemption or reduction often depends on whether the disabled person is dependent on the accompaniment of a dog, for example because he or she is blind or deaf.

In most Saxon municipalities, a tax exemption is currently granted - in accordance with the model statutes of the Saxon Association of Towns and Municipalities. This applies to guide dogs for the blind as well as to "dogs that are trained to serve exclusively for the protection and therapy of persons within the meaning of the law on severely disabled persons", but in some cases only to guide dogs for the blind.

• Copy of the severely disabled person's identity card with the mark B, Bl, aG, or H;
• in the case of commercial dog ownership additionally, extract from the commercial register of the company
