If you have reached the age of 55 or are permanently incapable of working, you can apply for a sales tax allowance for the capital gain.

Reduced tax rate: The capital gain remaining after deduction of the exemption amount is favoured under the fifth regulation. Upon request, it can also be taxed at a reduced rate of 56% of the average tax rate and at least 14%.

The reduced tax rate, like the sales tax allowance, is only granted under certain conditions:

You must reach the age of 55 or be permanently incapable to work within the meaning of social insurance law.
You can only take advantage of the benefits once in your life: The sales tax allowance accounts from 1996; the reduced tax rate from 2001.
You must apply for the benefits.
