The city has earned the honor of being recognized as an outstanding institution for the second consecutive year, having also won the excellence award in last year's evaluation.

Gyeonggi Province conducted a comprehensive evaluation of 31 local governments, dividing them into five groups according to the scale of tax delinquencies. The assessment covered 30 items across three categories as of last year: delinquency clearance performance, enforcement of dispositions, and the implementation of collection policies.

Despite the challenging circumstances caused by the economic downturn and high inflation last year, the city carried out rigorous collection activities, including real estate and vehicle auctions, home searches and movable property seizures, restrictions on licensed businesses, and license plate seizures. As a result, Yongin Special City received high marks in the areas of enforcement of delinquency dispositions and the implementation of collection policies.

A Yongin City official stated, "Yongin Special City's administrative competence in the continuous efforts to clear delinquencies and realize tax justice has been externally recognized, resulting in our selection as an outstanding institution again this year, following last year. We will maintain strong measures for delinquency dispositions and administrative sanctions, while also conducting tailored collection activities, such as granting deferment of disposition and encouraging installment payments for livelihood-based delinquent taxpayers who are willing to pay."
