[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seodaemun-gu (Mayor Moon Seok-jin) will organize and operate a "Tax Consultation Team" from September 16 to October 5, during the payment period for the "September Regular Property Tax," to provide high-quality tax administration services such as tax consultations and taxpayer convenience.

Through this, the goal is to respond kindly and promptly to residents' inquiries about filing and payment, while also strengthening publicity through various media to increase the payment rate within the deadline.

Property tax is levied annually as of June 1 on owners of houses, buildings, land, ships, etc., divided into July and September installments.

In July, half of the house tax, buildings, and ships are taxed, and in September, the remaining half of the house tax and other land excluding house accessory land are taxed.

The scale of the September regular property tax levy in Seodaemun-gu this year is 135,823 cases amounting to 66.58 billion KRW, and the district plans to send out tax bills by the 10th of this month.

If the payment deadline is missed, an initial surcharge of 3% must be paid by November 2, and if the property tax amount (including urban area tax) is 300,000 KRW or more, an additional surcharge of 0.75% per month for up to 60 months will be imposed.

Property tax can be paid at nationwide commercial banks, NongHyup, Suhyup, Saemaeul Geumgo, and post offices.

At convenience stores (CU, GS25), payment is possible 24 hours by credit card (Samsung, Hyundai, Woori BC, Lotte, and former KEB Hana cards only) or cash card (Woori, Shinhan, others with transfer fees).

It is also possible to pay via the Seoul City Internet Tax Payment System (Seoul City Tax) or the smartphone app "Seoul City Tax Payment" by account transfer (Woori Bank only) or credit card (all 13 domestic cards).

For inquiries, contacting the Tax Division 1 of Seodaemun-gu Office will provide detailed guidance regarding property tax.
