THE Navotas City government has passed an ordinance granting real property tax amnesty that writes off all penalties, surcharges, and interest on unpaid real property taxes, including the Special Education Fund (SEF), Idle Land Tax, and other special taxes.
The measure, in line with Republic Act No. 12001 otherwise known as the Real Property Valuation and Assessment Reform Act, aims to provide relief to property owners while encouraging them to settle their tax obligations with the city government.
The new ordinance also aims to strengthen the fiscal autonomy of the city government by enhancing its ability to generate revenues from real property taxation, ensuring the city can continue to deliver vital programs and services to its constituents.
Navotas Mayor John Rey Tiangco encouraged residents and property owners to take advantage of the amnesty program.
