Hwaseong City Launches E-Payment Service for Non-Tax Revenues and Environmental Improvement Charges

Payment of non-tax revenues and environmental improvement charges in Hwaseong City is becoming more convenient. From the 14th, Hwaseong City announced that it will expand the Simple e-Payment service to local non-tax revenues and environmental improvement charges, allowing citizens to make convenient payments from anywhere in the country.

The Simple e-Payment service is an integrated service that allows users to collectively inquire about and pay utility bills online without bills, which were previously paid according to regional and tax category classifications. Up until now, non-tax revenues and environmental improvement charges had different collection systems by local government, causing inconvenience to payers, but this service expansion will resolve these issues.

Additionally, with the implementation of the Simple e-Payment service for non-tax revenues and environmental improvement charges, payments can now be made not only at bank counters and ATMs, but also through credit cards via WesTax (wetax.go.kr) and Internet Giro (giro.or.kr). Citizens throughout the country who wish to pay non-tax revenues and environmental improvement charges can now do so easily and conveniently without bills.

A city official stated, "Through the expansion of this Simple e-Payment service, we expect a reduction in delinquent non-tax revenue payments, which will also improve the soundness of local finances.

We also plan to expand the service to include traffic congestion charges, traffic violation fines, and water and sewage fees by the end of this year," the official added.

When paying with a credit card from another bank at a bank ATM, a device usage fee is charged. For counter payments at banks, customers must bring the bill with them.
