Property census begins in Ulaanbaatar

A campaign for “Property census and tax payers` registration” began on September 20th according to a joint regulation by the Ulaanbaatar City Mayor and the Head of the General Department of Taxation.

The census and registration will be conducted in two phases. The first phase will be held by sub-commissions specific districts over 30 working days, from September 20th to November 1st 2013.

The second phase for monitoring will be conducted by the Ulaanbaatar City Commission across the city over 10 working days from November 4th to November 15th.

The last Property Census was conducted in 2008. But there is no data on taxpayers so there is problem for the estimation of property.

Thus the census aims to create an information database for taxpayers, improving taxation and tax payment, increasing a sustainable income source for local budgets this year during the campaign of the Property Census and Taxpayers registration.

The census and registration proceedings will involve citizens who have registered in districts in the City and every property, place of employment that runs a business, service and trade and taxpayers.

According to the regulation issued by the Ulaanbaatar City Mayor and the Head of the General Department of Taxation, a task force will count each property located in the City, register in form and compare the information database and confirm the registration.
