Gyeonggi Provincial Government Gwanggyo New Office Building

Gyeonggi Province collected 1.2425 trillion KRW in non-tax revenue last year, marking the third consecutive year of collecting over 1.2 trillion KRW in non-tax revenue.

Local non-tax revenue refers to the autonomous income of local governments aside from local taxes such as acquisition tax and registration license tax. It includes rental income from public property, parking fees, collection grants, road usage fees, and various charges.

The province has previously made efforts to improve the collection rate of overdue payments through various policies and by expanding specialized personnel to support these efforts. In particular, last year, by utilizing the newly introduced "Housing Lease Contract Reporting System," the province conducted home searches and seized deposits targeting high-value habitual tax delinquents who leased luxury homes without registered property, collecting 3.8 billion KRW from 1,748 individuals.

Additionally, for delinquent corporations in the construction sector, the province used the "Construction Industry Knowledge Information System (KISCON)" to enforce collection measures, including seizing construction payment debts from third-party debtors (such as contractors, clients, and main contractors), collecting 900 million KRW from 151 cases at 77 construction sites within the jurisdiction.

This year, the province has set a non-tax revenue collection target at 90% of the 2023 assessed amount and over 35% of the carried-over overdue amount (112.2 billion KRW).

To achieve this, the province will promote ▲strengthening collection measures against high-value habitual delinquents and continuously developing new collection techniques ▲public disclosure of delinquent lists, restrictions on authorized projects, and registration of non-payers of litigation costs in the debtor registry ▲support for vulnerable groups amid the economic crisis (activation of suspension of collection) ▲hosting research presentation contests on excellent non-tax revenue cases by the province, cities, and counties, and supporting capacity building for responsible personnel.

Ryu Young-yong, Director of the Tax Justice Division of the province, stated, "Along with local taxes, the importance of non-tax revenue, which is a fundamental resource for local autonomy, is growing day by day. We will do our best to realize tax justice and foster a fair taxpaying culture through strong collection measures against high-value habitual delinquents and activation of suspension of collection to support vulnerable groups."
