Sejong City Conducts 'Comprehensive Cleanup' of Non-Tax Revenue Arrears from September to November

[Asia Economy (Sejong) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Sejong City announced on the 31st that it will designate the period from next month to November as the special collection period for overdue non-tax revenue and will carry out intensive collection activities.

According to the city, the total amount of overdue non-tax revenue from previous years this year is 11.5 billion KRW, of which 2.5 billion KRW was collected in the first half of this year.

The remaining uncollected non-tax revenue amounts to 9 billion KRW (43,754 cases), and the city plans to encourage payment by sending overdue payment notices in bulk during the second half of the year.

In addition, for high-amount and habitual defaulters, the city plans to actively settle overdue amounts through measures such as seizure of real estate, automobiles, and deposits, restrictions on licensed businesses, and public disclosure of names.

However, for corporations, businesses, and livelihood-type defaulters affected by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, the city will provide guidance and support for deferred disposition, deferred collection, and installment payments.

Lee Hong-jun, Director of the Autonomous Administration Bureau of the city, said, “We will conduct active collection activities against chronic and habitual defaulters to secure tax justice.”
