Death

After a death, there is a lot to deal with. You have to arrange many things, including the HHNK water board tax. We are happy to help you.

The municipality will notify us in the event of a death. You do not need to inform us yourself. However, you can indicate the address to which we can send mail. The Message Box and My HHNK can no longer be used after death.

What are the consequences for tax assessments?

  • We are reducing the purification levy or the pollution levy. You will receive a letter about this;
  • We will not reduce the water system levy and the road tax. This is stipulated by law.
  • Tax assessments are not waived in the event of death. Once you accept the inheritance, you are also responsible for paying the amount due.

Frequently asked question

We would like to receive the tax assessment in the name of someone other than "the heirs of." Is that possible?

Yes, if there are multiple owners, a request can be made by the co-owner. If there is only one owner, the tax assessment can be imposed on one of the heirs. In that case, we would like to receive a request and the certificate of inheritance. The name change will then take effect from the following tax year.

Send your request, signed by the co-owner or heir, tobelastingen@hhnk.nl (you can scan or photograph your request), or by mail to:
