Can I still object to the Mossel Bay GV2022 roll?

The general objection period (closed) has closed. The GV2022 roll was for 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2026 and is still in use: the Municipality published a supplementary roll for 2026-2027 in May 2026, ahead of its next general roll. An error of fact on your entry, such as the wrong category or extent, can usually still be raised with the valuations office.

Can I see the Mossel Bay GV2022 roll online?

The Mossel Bay publishes its roll and notices on its valuations page. Or type the address into ErfCheck above: the record shows the erf number, township and last registered sale for free, and the R99 report adds the GV2022 value beside recent sales on the street.

Does objecting stop me paying rates?

No. Rates stay payable on the roll value while the objection is decided. If the value is reduced, the City adjusts the account.

When do the new values apply?

From 1 July 2022. Rates bills from then on use the GV2022 value.

Is GV2022 the 2022/23 valuation roll?

Yes. Its values are as at the date of valuation, and rates bills use them from 1 July 2022 until the next general roll. Supplementary rolls revalue individual properties in between.

What value is on the roll?

The market value of the property at the roll's date of valuation, set by the municipal valuer by mass appraisal. It is not today's market value and not a bank valuation.

Where do I find my erf number?

On your rates account, your title deed or the SG diagram, or type the street address into ErfCheck. See how to find an erf number.

Mossel Bay valuation roll GV2022 (rates from July 2022): property values and erf numbers

The Mossel Bay values every property in Mossel Bay, Hartenbos, Groot Brak River, Klein Brak River, KwaNonqaba, Dana Bay, Reebok, Herbertsdale, Vleesbaai and the farms on its general valuation roll, and your rates are worked out from that value. Here is what the current roll says, how to look a property up, and how an objection works.

Look up a property in Mossel Bay

Free: erf number, township, last registered sale and imagery. No owner names.

ErfCheck reads the Mossel Bay GV2022 roll, published for 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2026 and still in use (the Municipality's latest supplementary roll covers 2026-2027), by erf and township or street address, farm portions by farm name and number, and sectional title units by scheme and unit. The roll prints owners' names; ErfCheck reads only the property's own columns. Values changed on the supplementary rolls aren't shown here yet. You can also type an erf number with its township (for example "Erf 1234, Rondebosch") to get the street address back.

Reading a property's entry on the roll

Each property on the GV2022 roll is one line, whether you find it on the council's portal, on the published roll or on your valuation notice:

Property description: the erf (or farm portion, or sectional unit) and its township, as registered. This is how the council identifies the property, not the street address; what an erf number is.
Street address, where the council records one.
Category: residential, business, agricultural, vacant land and so on. The category sets which rate in the rand applies, so a wrong category costs money even when the value is right.
Extent: the registered land area (for a sectional unit, the section's floor area).
Market value: the figure your rates are worked out from.

If the description, category or extent is wrong, that is an error of fact to raise with the valuations office, separate from disagreeing with the value.

How to object to your valuation

Check the window. The general-roll window (closed) has closed. The GV2022 roll was for 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2026 and is still in use: the Municipality published a supplementary roll for 2026-2027 in May 2026, ahead of its next general roll.
Get the form. Objections go in on the City's own form, one property per objection. Notices and instructions: Mossel Bay valuations page.
Give evidence, not a feeling. An objection succeeds on market evidence as at the date of valuation: registered sales of similar properties on your street, in your scheme or suburb close to that date, and your own purchase price if it was recent. Defects the valuer could not see (structural damage, a smaller extent than recorded) count too.
Keep paying rates on the roll value while the City decides. If you disagree with the decision you can appeal to the valuation appeal board; the City's decision letter explains how.

The R99 ErfCheck report puts that evidence on one page: the roll value, every recent registered sale on your street or in your scheme, your own transfer, and a plain verdict on whether the gap is worth contesting.

How the value turns into rates

Annual rates are the roll value, less any residential exclusion in the City's rates policy, multiplied by the rate in the rand the council sets in each year's budget (effective 1 July). A lower roll value lowers the bill in proportion. Try it with Mossel Bay's 2026/27 tariff:
