Additionally, payments can be made via dedicated virtual account payment, phone payment, mobile payment, and the local tax payment system, Witax, without visiting banks or government offices.

Especially, starting from June this year, with the implementation of the local tax revenue account payment service, payments for local taxes and non-tax revenues of local governments can be made via account transfer without transfer fees at 21 financial institutions by simply entering the account number, making it even more convenient to pay automobile tax.
