Last week condo tax, now land tax?

[inf]

Hello! I'm a foreign condo owner who mostly lives overseas.

 

Last week - during a short visit here - I paid the condo tax (blue envelope) at the Pattaya City Government, about 374 baht for a condo of about 36 square meters. 

 

Now back overseas, to my surprise I receive a message from my condo's juristic office telling me a green envelope for the land tax has arrived. Never heard of this before. Also, since I'm a foreigner, I can't own any 'land,' it's just an apartment inside a condo building.

 

Do you condo owners also receive two envelopes (a green and a blue one) at this time of year? Do you have to pay both a separate condo tax and a land tax?

 

Thanks for your advice.

I thought my tax business was over with paying the condo tax last week.

I just received my second notice, The green one. This was the actual bill and I paid it with my Bank App by scanning the QR code.

 

I had previously received a the initial notice, not sure if it was blue or not.

 

My condo office is familiar with these and told me the first one was just notice that the bill would be coming soon. 

 

I think you may have gone to City Hall before you received that actual bill and they just let you pay early.

 

Same thing last year. An advance notice and the later received the bill.

Hey, thank you, Joe.

I think yours is the right explanation.

I'll send a picture of the stamped receipt I got from the city government to my juristic office to show them I paid that.

Lucky you getting a bill, PCH seem very slow, conspiracy theory, they aren't sending some out so people have to pay interest

No such thing as a Condo tax. There is land/property Tax, usually only a couple of hundred baht.
