Climate: months, seasons and temperatures

December–February: 7…20 °C · March–May: 10…24 °C · June–August: 12…25 °C · September–November: 9…22 °C. Four seasons are distinct; heating demand is concentrated from late autumn into early spring, with the summer maximum in July–August. Daily adaptation depends on language, neighbourhood and whether life runs through local rather than tourist services. Before a long lease, test peak-hour transport, private healthcare, schools, banking, internet quality and real government-service lead times.

Personal, business and foreign-asset taxes

Personal income tax: 20%. Standard corporate income tax: 15%. The system is predominantly territorial: income source is central rather than residence alone. Foreign property itself is generally outside a local net-wealth charge and foreign-source income is often outside PIT, subject to exceptions for income type, remittance and CFC rules.

Social and economic figures are comparable 2026 orientation benchmarks. They are useful for country comparison but do not replace a personal budget, tax calculation or city-level verification.
