Daejeon City announced on the 1st that it has designated this month as the "Local Tax Unclaimed Refunds Intensive Settlement Period" and will actively promote local tax refunds.


The refund targets include a total of 18,976 cases of unclaimed local taxes across the five autonomous districts, amounting to 937.73 million KRW. Most of the unclaimed refunds are local income tax and automobile tax arising from reasons such as national tax adjustments and vehicle transfer or cancellation.


Local tax refund inquiries and applications can be made through Wetax, Daejeon City's automated response (ARS) payment system, and the respective local governments of the five autonomous districts.


If a local tax refund account was registered in advance via Wetax, refunds can be received in the registered account without a separate application when a refund occurs.


Currently, the five autonomous districts are sending local tax refund payment notices to the eligible individuals and promoting unclaimed local tax refunds through websites and other mass media.



A Daejeon City official stated, "We will actively return unclaimed local taxes to protect taxpayers' rights and promote local tax administration work."
