IMI in Freixo de Espada à Cinta: the rate is set per parish
The municipality of Freixo de Espada à Cinta (Bragança district) does not set a single IMI rate: it sets one per freguesia. So there is no figure here — printing a zero would be printing something untrue. Your own rate is on the Autoridade Tributária bill and at the câmara municipal.

The law sets the urban rate between 0,3 % and 0,45 % and the rural rate at 0,8 % (CIMI, article 112.º). The municipal assembly picks the rate every year, for the whole municipality or per freguesia; if no decision reaches the Tax Authority by 31 December, the minimum applies.
