Helping to Recover 605 Million Won in Local Taxes, Non-Tax Revenues, and Fines... Promotion Event Through District Office Website Until the 20th

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jeong Soon-gyun) has resolved the grievances of a total of 507 local tax payers so far by releasing 1,681 seized vehicles through the Taxpayer Protection Officer system since April.

From April to June, the district released 1,681 seized vehicles through the Taxpayer Protection Officer system, helping taxpayers who faced difficulties due to unfair measures receive relief totaling 605 million KRW, including 447 million KRW in local taxes (2,463 cases) and 158 million KRW in non-tax revenue fines (325 cases).

Introduced in March last year, this system aims to assist taxpayers experiencing difficulties related to local taxes. The Taxpayer Protection Officer performs duties such as ▲ protecting rights during tax audits and delinquency measures ▲ consulting on extensions or postponements of tax audit periods ▲ requesting correction or suspension of illegal or unfair measures.

Gangnam-gu is conducting a promotional event titled “Beat the Heat and COVID-19 with the Taxpayer Protection Officer,” where participants who answer a quiz about the role of the Taxpayer Protection Officer on the district office website by the 20th will be entered into a draw to receive an LED mini fan.
