Notification letters on property tax

Notification letters on property tax

JAKARTA (JP): The City Revenue Office will begin distributing property tax (PBB) notification letters to taxpayers throughout the city on March 25.

Office chief Wahab Rachmatsjah said yesterday that the office would be distributing the tax notification letters in two stages. First, from March 25 to June 7, taxpayers will be urged to pick up the notification letters from subdistrict offices. During the second stage, which will take place on June 14, subdistrict offices will distribute the notification letters door to door.

"We hope taxpayers will collect the notification letters from subdistrict offices and not to wait for the letters to be delivered to their houses," Wahab said.

He said each subdistrict should distribute all notification letters to its residents within 15 days. To facilitate this, the city administration has ordered subdistrict offices to offer their services on both Saturdays and Sundays.

He said his office would distribute about 1.2 million tax notification letters, in a bid to fulfill the city administration's target of Rp 285 billion in revenue in the 1995/1996 fiscal year.

The target for the coming 1995/1996 fiscal year is Rp 83.6 billion higher than that for the 1994/1995 fiscal year. (yns)
