E-mail or virtual download: this is how you can access the Bogotá property receipt from April 18

After technical problems, the possibility for owners in Bogotá to access the property receipt virtually, with the option of making payment by platform and other alternatives, is already enabled again. We explain the options you will have available.

After the problems in the registration of the Virtual Office, the District Treasury Secretariat enabled, as of April 17, a button on the entity's website that will allow downloading the Property Tax for 2022, according to César Figueroa, director (e) of Taxes of Bogotá.

To download it, you must go to www.haciendabogota.gov.co and in the upper right part of the portal you will find the button “Download your invoice now”, which will take you to a window with the different taxes of the district and you must select property to access the options for this tax.

There will appear the options to download the invoice and pay at the different physical points, register at the virtual office to directly pay the current or previous receipt, as well as access the payment of installments for those affected by covid-19.

To download the receipt, you will need to fill out the type of identification of the owner according to each case (citizenship or foreigner's card, NIT, professional card) and finally enter the identification number and CHIP of the property. The Ministry of Finance recommends using Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox browsers, and on any device (computer, cell phone or tablet) to have pop-up windows enabled.

In the case of registering at the virtual office, you must enter the new Virtual Office through the option “Register here” and start the registration process with an email and password. Once registered, you must enter the office with your username and password, through the “Taxpayer” option. In the top bar you will find the tab “Inquiries” - “Pending obligations”. By selecting the “Property Tax”, the value to be paid and the options for downloading the receipt and paying at authorized banks or making the payment online will be displayed.

SECUIR LEYENDO: These are the banks and correspondents authorized to pay the Property Tax in Bogotá

The properties that have more than one owner, can access the invoice with the identification of any of them, so it is recommended to have everyone's document to do the process. In the case of land purchased with leasing, it must be done with the NIT number of the financial institution and CHIP of the property.

In other words, citizens will have the option of downloading the receipt without registering, only with the owner and property data. As well as the second possibility of registering in the Virtual Office, the latter has advantages such as accessing a 1% more discount, modifying the receipt data if there are errors or having the option of paying in installments.

But they're not the only options either. Since April 14, the Ministry of Finance began the delivery of physical receipts for buildings in strata 1 and 2, as well as in rural areas and those where the owner is over 60 years old in order to facilitate their access. This process should continue until the end of the month.

In addition, the Ministry of Finance reported that, as of this Monday, April 18, 2022, it will begin sending the Property Tax invoices to the taxpayers who are registered with the Tax Directorate.

As of April 16, the Secretariat had received 500,000 payments amounting to 650 billion pesos, representing 19% of the annual target, 32 billion through the Virtual Office. Until the 9th and until May 24th, the 10% discount will begin to expire according to the last letter of the CHIP.
