2026 tax changes

Transfer tax and VAT are separate layers

Montenegro’s 2026 tax materials record changes affecting real-estate transfer tax and VAT, including building-land treatment. Do not combine them into an automatic total until the current calculation is verified.

Key points

What to remember

  • Start with the Montenegro Country Passport and the relevant property category.
  • Do not treat an under-review fact as a verified national rule.
  • Temporary residence is not permanent residence, and property is not citizenship.
  • Market prices, yields and bank examples do not prove legal or tax rules.
  • Confirm the transaction with the competent Montenegro authority and a qualified professional.
