Gyeongsan City in Gyeongbuk Province received the Encouragement Award in the '2022 Local Tax Administration Comprehensive Evaluation' hosted by Gyeongbuk Province.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yeo Jong-gu] Gyeongsan City received the 'Encouragement Award' in the comprehensive evaluation of local tax administration in Gyeongbuk Province.

Gyeongbuk Province evaluated the overall local tax operations of 23 cities and counties last year based on 24 items in four areas: local tax collection performance, arrears settlement performance, local tax revenue expansion performance, and the establishment of a foundation for tax administration management.

The city received high marks for creating a foundation for tax revenue expansion by preventing tax evasion and omission in advance through the maintenance and management of taxation data, and by actively collecting overdue taxes to settle arrears.

In addition, to help understand local taxes, the city published a local tax guidebook for businesses and provides taxpayer convenience systems that allow 365-day local tax inquiry and payment through virtual accounts, ARS easy payment, and credit card payment.

Deputy Mayor Kim Ju-ryeong said, “We will continuously discover convenient tax payment policies and carry out tax administration that approaches taxpayers one step closer.”
