Is it illegal for community committees to charge fees?

The fees charged by the community committee are illegal. For the owners' self-government Committee of the community, there is no qualification for law enforcement. It's just a collective organized by the owners to govern. If there is a charging behavior, it is obviously a violation of the relevant laws and regulations, and the specific situation needs to be judged in combination with the actual situation.

In the new regulation of Property Law, the standard of property fee is RMB 1.00 per square meter, including taxes and fees; The second standard is 0.75 yuan per square meter, including taxes and fees; The third standard is 0.50 yuan per square meter, including taxes and fees; The fourth standard is 0.35 yuan per square meter, which also includes taxes. Although some communities are negotiated by developers and property companies, it is the owners who actually enjoy property services. Owners can also set up owners' committees, re-sign property contracts with residential properties, and formulate charging items and charging standards.

The owner shall pay the property service fee or property service fund in full and on time in accordance with the property service contract. If the owner fails to pay the service fee or property service fund within the time limit in violation of the property service contract, the owners' committee shall urge him to pay within a time limit; Overdue payment, property management companies can be recovered according to law. If the owner and the user of the property agree that the user of the property shall pay the property service fee or the property service fund, the owner shall bear joint and several liability from the agreement. When the property right is transferred, the owner or property user shall settle the property service fee or property service fund.
