Jangsu County Office building.

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyeong] Jangsu County announced on the 29th that starting in June, it will implement the ‘Local Tax Revenue Account Payment Service,’ which uses electronic payment numbers assigned to all local government revenue payments, such as local taxes, non-tax revenues, and environmental improvement charges, as deposit account numbers.

The ‘Local Tax Revenue Account Payment Service’ is a service that provides convenience to taxpayers by expanding the familiar account transfer method. It allows payment without transfer fees at 21 banks nationwide, excluding internet banks, by using the electronic payment number listed on local tax bills as the deposit account number.

Until now, Jangsu County’s virtual accounts were assigned to NongHyup Bank, causing inconvenience as taxpayers had to bear transfer fees when using other banks or making payments outside business hours. However, this new service is expected to enhance taxpayer convenience.

The method to use the Local Tax Revenue Account Payment Service is as follows: after receiving various bills such as automobile tax in June, taxpayers select ‘Local Tax Revenue’ as the deposit bank in the account transfer menu via internet/mobile banking or CD/ATM, then enter the Local Tax Revenue Account (electronic payment number) as the deposit account number. Tax information is automatically retrieved, allowing taxpayers to confirm the payment amount and complete the payment by executing the account transfer.

Manager Kim Giwan said, “With the introduction of the Local Tax Revenue Account Payment Service, taxpayers will no longer bear transfer fees when paying various revenues, greatly improving payment convenience. We will continue to discover and implement measures to enhance taxpayer convenience in the future.”
