WRITTEN QUESTION E-2701/98

by Marie-Paule Kestelijn-Sierens (ELDR) to the Commission

(1 September 1998)

Subject: Registration fees

Can the Commission provide a breakdown of the registration fees payable in the fifteen Member States of the European Union on the purchase of real estate?

Answer given by Mr Monti on behalf of the Commission

(21 September 1998)

Registration taxes on immovable property are a matter for the Member States, and there is no plan to harmonise them at Community level.

The Commission does not, therefore, possess the detailed information sought by the Honourable Member.
