In Marikina, up to 50% off if you pay taxes ahead of schedule

The Marikina City Government is offering a discount to residents who pay their real property taxes early for 2014. In a statement, Marikina Mayor Del de Guzman said the city treasurer’s office will give as much as a 50 per cent discount for residents who pay their 2014 real property taxes in full from Jan 14 to Mar 31. Those paying on a quarterly scheme would get 10 per cent off. Real property tax and business tax payments are accepted from Mondays to Fridays, 8am to 5pm and Saturdays from 8am to 5pm, according to the mayor. We hope residents there get even better government service for paying in advance.
