[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters (Jeju) Reporter Park Chang-won] Jeju Special Self-Governing Province disclosed the list of 219 high-amount and habitual local tax and non-tax revenue defaulters on the Jeju Provincial Government website on the 18th.

High-amount defaulters have been publicly disclosed nationwide simultaneously every year on the third Wednesday of November since 2006 through the websites of local governments and the Ministry of the Interior and Safety. The disclosed information includes the defaulters' names, ages, occupations, business names, addresses, and amounts owed.

Among high-amount defaulters in the Jeju area, 11.9% are aged 40 or younger, 39.6% are in their 50s, and 48.5% are 60 or older.

Based on the address, 37 are from outside the province, and 182 are from within the province (including 38 corporate representatives residing outside the province).

The list disclosure targets defaulters whose local tax or non-tax revenue arrears have exceeded 10 million won for more than one year from the occurrence date of the arrears. After providing a six-month opportunity for explanation, the selection is made through two reviews by the 'Local Tax Deliberation Committee.'

This year's list disclosure includes a total of 219 defaulters (112 corporations and 107 individuals), with arrears amounting to 16.1 billion won.

Among them, 212 are local tax defaulters with arrears of 15.7 billion won (110 corporations with 11.1 billion won and 102 individuals with 4.6 billion won), and 7 are non-tax revenue defaulters with arrears of 400 million won (2 corporations with 300 million won and 5 individuals with 100 million won).

By arrears amount, the largest group is those owing less than 30 million won, totaling 104 defaulters (47.5%).

This list disclosure also includes defaulters selected for disclosure from 2013 to 2019.

Hyun Dae-sung, Director of Planning and Coordination Office of Jeju Province, said, “We will continue to regularly disclose the list of high-amount and habitual local tax and non-tax revenue defaulters every year until a culture of sincere tax payment is established.”
