this one is a new one for me and it seems strange after living in Seoul 10 years and 5 years at my present place (immigration has had this address since i moved here) today I got in the mail a bill from the Seoul City government for a "resident tax" (wife got one to sent to her office). Its only 6,000 won but in all my years here I've never gotten one.

Just wondering

I've always had to pay this. In my town its calculated at 10% of your income tax deduction, but I've heard that can vary depending on your city.

We just got it, too. 6000 won each. I get them at least once a year.

I never received the "resident tax" in the past, but yesterday I received my first resident tax as a Korean citizen. It is 2,500 KRW every 6 months. I was expecting it and sure enough it arrived yesterday.
