Property tax letters for 2014 to be issued soon

Letters will be issued to over a million property owners in the coming weeks, setting out payment options for next year’s local property tax.

A full year of the tax, which was introduced this year, is due in 2014.

Many paid the tax for 2013 in one payment with 84% paying with a credit or debit card in one installment through their bank.

There are other payment options available, however, including at source through salary deducations, pensions or state payments or by cash through An Post, Payzone or Omnivend.
