In Mie prefecture, in order to eliminate the delinquent payment of prefectural taxes, December and January of the following year, this two months are treated as prefectural tax “seizure strengthening month”.

“Seizure” is a compulsory disposition in accordance with the law. It is to do to those who do not pay prefectural tax even if there is income and property, this is to keep fairness with those who pays by the deadline.

Until now, the county tax offices in the prefecture will carry out “seizure disposal” at once to the delinquents who shows no intention of paying despite the fact that he / she has been sent a demand to pay many times.

Various assets such as “credits” “salary”, “accounts receivable”, “deposits and savings”, “life insurance”, “automobiles” and “real estate” are subject to seizure.

For “Automobile Seizure” a “Tire Lock” may be installed so that it can’t be moved. The seized automobiles, real estate, etc. will be sold at Internet public auction and will be used for taxes that are delinquent. In addition, we may take a measure called “Search” to discover property and make seizure. The prefecture tax “seizure strengthening month” is for two months in December and January, but we also do seizure at any time even in other periods.

Those who have not paid prefectural tax, please make sure to pay as soon as possible.
