The Mayor's Office of Bogotá reported that citizens can now access invoices for property tax, which can be downloaded through the new platform of the Ministry of Finance. To access and carry out any electronic procedure related to this obligation, taxpayers must be registered with the Virtual Office with an email and password.
Finance Secretary Juan Mauricio Ramírez explained that the new platform “will simplify procedures and provide complete, accurate and timely information to the more than 2.6 million Predial taxpayers in Bogotá, including those who are going to pay in installments.”
How to register in the Virtual Office?
1. Taxpayers must visit the official website of the District Treasury Secretariat.
2. Go to the Virtual Office section and click on 'Register new virtual office' and then 'Register here'.
3. Select the type of document with which you are going to register and fill in the data requested.
4. Click on the 'OK' option.
5. Answer the validation questions that the system throws up and click 'Submit'. It should be remembered that if the answers are not correct, the system will not allow you to move forward in the process.
6. Create your username and password. If you have previously registered an email on the page, this will appear, but you can modify it if you want.
7. You will receive an email confirming your registration to activate your account.
One of the novelties of this Virtual Office is that the taxpayer's user will no longer be their ID number, but an email, which with a secure password will henceforth allow the procedures to be carried out.

Strata 1, 2 and rural with physical invoice
Faced with the new change, the district administration determined that in order to facilitate the declaration of the obligation to populations that have difficulties in accessing the new technological means, it will make an exception.
The Mayor's Office will send the physical bills to almost 700,000 properties in strata 1, 2 and rural and to 260,000 stratum 3 homes, whose properties are owned by adults over 60 years of age. These people will be able to comply with the payment of property tax through traditional channels.
Property Tax Payment Dates
For this year, taxpayers will have until June 24 to comply with the obligation. However, if the Bogotá is interested in making the payment with the 10% discount, they must cancel it between May 9 and 24.
According to the Secretariat, these are the payment dates of the 10% discount obligation for prompt payment, which are determined by the last letter of the CHIP.
