New online forms in the field of capital income tax relief

From 15.7.2025, there will be a new online form for the capital income tax relief procedure. The old form “Application for refund or exemption

from capital income tax pursuant to section 50c or 44a (9) of the Income Tax Act” will be presented in two forms (refund and exemption) in future. The online forms have been revised overall and differ considerably from the form used to date.

The form changeover is accompanied by a portal change, which means that:

  • Draft forms of the old form can no longer be used in the new portal
  • Applications submitted via the old portal can still be found in the old portal. You will be notified of the decision in the old portal.
  • All applications submitted via the new portal from 15.7.2025 will only be displayed in the new portal. You will be notified of the decision in the new portal.
  • You can also submit subsequent documents and general inquiries for applications from the old portal in the new portal. These processes will then only appear in the new portal.
