Gurye-gun Offers 10% Annual Car Tax Discount for Early Payment by End of January

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yuk Miseok] Gurye-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 13th that it is accepting applications for annual prepayment of automobile tax until the end of January to reduce the tax burden on residents.

The annual prepayment system for automobile tax allows taxpayers to pay the automobile tax, which is usually paid twice a year (June and December), in advance by the end of January and receive a 10% deduction on the annual tax amount.

The county is actively promoting this by providing information on electronic display boards, distributing newsletters twice, holding village chief meetings, and sending individual notices to automobile owners so that many residents can benefit from the deduction.

Applications for the annual prepayment of automobile tax can be made at the Gurye-gun Office Finance Department or through the Wetax website. Once applied, an annual prepayment notice is regularly sent every January, so reapplication is not necessary.

If payment is not made by the end of January after applying for the prepayment, the tax will be billed in June and December without any additional charges. If the automobile is transferred or deregistered after prepayment, a refund of the prepaid automobile tax can be received based on the date of transfer or deregistration, calculated on a daily basis.

A county official stated, “As of January 1, the number of registered automobiles in Gurye-gun is 13,936, of which 3,178 have already applied for the annual prepayment, accounting for about 23% of the registered vehicles.”
