    Bratislava, 7 January 2026 – By 31 January 2026, all natural persons and legal entities are required to file a return for property tax if they acquired property in the previous year or if they experienced another change compared to last year, for example, if they sold or donated a property. To make filling out the tax return easier, taxpayers in Bratislava have available again this year an intuitive document that will guide them through the entire form and help with numerical calculations. Once the form is filled out, it can also be directly submitted electronically as a tax return.

    Results of meeting of the City Council in December

    Bratislava, 11 December 2025 – An early Christmas gift for the people of Vajnory. At the last meeting of the City Council this year, members of the City Council approved a solution to the years-long problem of the ownership of the land under the football pitch in Vajnory. As a result, the Vajnory football pitch will no longer be on land belonging to a private agricultural cooperative. This saves both the pitch and the existence of the Vajnory football club itself. The City Council also approved the acquisition of land for the completion of an important intersection and the missing safe turnoff from Jarovce in the direction of the D4. It further approved the leasing of city premises that will serve mainly to help children and young people with disabilities.
