Welcome tax in Beloeil in 2026: the verified grid, the tax on a single-family house at $650,000, the first-time buyer credit and how to pay

Welcome tax · Beloeil · 2026 grid verified at the source

The exact 2026 grid of Beloeil, read on the city's site, with the tax on real prices, the credit and the payment terms.

In Beloeil, the 2026 welcome tax (transfer duties) follows the provincial brackets (0.5% up to $62,900, 1% up to $315,000, 1.5% up to $500,000) and then the city's own rate: 2% up to $750,000, 2.5% up to $1,000,000, 3% above. On a single-family house at $650,000 (Beloeil-Mont-Saint-Hilaire sector median, QPAREB Q2 2026), the tax is $8,610.50; an eligible first-time buyer gets $5,875 back through Quebec's refundable credit (up to $5,875, reduced above a $750,000 base) and pays $2,735.50 net. In Beloeil, the transfer duty is due from the 31st day after the city sends the account, in one instalment. The bill arrives after the deed is registered, never at the notary, and no lender includes it in the mortgage.

The 2026 welcome tax grid in Beloeil

Beloeil applies the three provincial brackets up to $500,000 and then raises the rate by by-law: 2% up to $750,000, 2.5% up to $1,000,000, 3% above. Below $500,000, the tax is the same as anywhere else in Quebec; the difference appears above.

What it comes to on real prices in Beloeil

The examples cover a condo, the $500,000 threshold, a single-family house at the median ($650,000, Beloeil-Mont-Saint-Hilaire sector median, QPAREB Q2 2026) and larger properties, so you can place your own price. Above a $750,000 tax base, the first-time buyer credit shrinks and disappears at $1,000,000.

How to read it: on a single-family house at $650,000 (Beloeil-Mont-Saint-Hilaire sector median, QPAREB Q2 2026), the welcome tax is $8,610.50; an eligible first-time buyer gets $5,875 back and pays $2,735.50 net. Beloeil's municipal increase accounts for $750 of that amount, compared with a municipality that applies the basic grid. Our French welcome tax calculator runs the same calculation for any price.

What amount Beloeil taxes

The tax base is the highest of three amounts: the price paid, the consideration stated in the deed, and the value on the assessment roll multiplied by the year's comparative factor. In a rising market the price paid almost always exceeds the adjusted roll value, so the price is the base; in a sale between relatives or on a property bought below assessment, the adjusted roll value takes over and the bill can surprise. The notary records the tax base in the deed of sale and the municipality bills from the registration in the Land Register.

When and how to pay in Beloeil

In Beloeil, the transfer duty is due from the 31st day after the city sends the account, in one instalment. On an exempt transfer, the city collects a $200 special duty when the base reaches $40,000, except when the transfer results from a death. The grid is published under Taxation on beloeil.ca. The bill is never handed over at the notary's office: it arrives by mail, or in the online tax account, generally a few weeks to two months after signing. Budget for it before the offer to purchase, alongside notary fees and the inspection, because no lender finances it inside the mortgage.

The first-time buyer credit of up to $5,875

Since January 1, 2026, Quebec's refundable tax credit for home ownership reimburses first-time buyers 100% of the first $5,000 of transfer duties paid and 25% of the next $3,500, up to $5,875, on a first principal residence. The credit is reduced by 2.35% of the portion of the tax base above $750,000 and reaches zero at $1,000,000 (Finances Québec, Information Bulletin 2026-2). A first-time buyer is someone who did not live in a home owned by themselves or their spouse in the year of purchase or the four previous years. The buyer first pays Beloeil's bill, then claims the credit on their income tax return, or as an advance payment from October 2026 when the amount exceeds $1,000. On a single-family house at the median ($650,000), the credit covers $5,875 of the $8,610.50, so a first-time buyer in Beloeil pays $2,735.50 net. The details, including couples where only one spouse has owned before, are in our guide to the welcome tax refund.

Who does not pay the welcome tax in Beloeil

The exemptions come from provincial law and are the same in every city: a transfer in the direct ascending or descending line (parent to child, grandparent to grandchild, never between siblings), a transfer between spouses who are married, in a civil union or de facto after twelve months of living together (or parents of the same child), a tax base under $5,000, and a transfer to a corporation in which the seller holds at least 90% of the shares. The notary cites the exemption section in the deed. Beloeil then collects a supplementary duty of at most $200, except when the transfer follows a death. Our French article on welcome tax exemptions goes into detail.

Mont-Saint-Hilaire, across the river, McMasterville, Otterburn Park and Saint-Mathieu-de-Beloeil each have their own by-law: for a buyer comparing a $700,000 house in Beloeil with one across the bridge, the welcome tax can differ by several thousand dollars.

Frequently asked questions

How much is the welcome tax on a single-family house at $650,000 in Beloeil?

$8,610.50 with Beloeil's 2026 grid, if the price paid is the tax base. An eligible first-time buyer gets $5,875 back from Revenu Québec and pays $2,735.50 net.

When does the welcome tax bill arrive in Beloeil?

A few weeks to two months after signing at the notary, once the deed is registered in the Land Register. In Beloeil, the bill can be paid in instalments: see the payment section above.

Is the welcome tax higher in Beloeil than elsewhere?

Under $500,000, no: the grid is the provincial one. Above, Beloeil applies 2% up to $750,000, 2.5% up to $1,000,000, 3% above, which places it below the cities that charge 3% from $500,000; the comparison table shows the gap on real prices.

Do a new house and a condo pay the same tax?

Yes, the grid is the same for a house, a condo, a plex or a lot, and the price used as the base includes sales taxes on a new build. Since 2026 the GST is eliminated up to $1,000,000 on a new home for a first-time buyer, which lowers the price paid and therefore the welcome tax base.
