The tax service has begun sending out mass notifications to individuals demanding payment of property tax. This applies not only to actual properties but also to cases where such properties are no longer owned by citizens or have never been in their possession.

For example, an entrepreneur discovered a notification from the tax service during a check of his taxpayer cabinet in the "E-Services for Citizens" section, indicating a tax assessment of 4,150 hryvnias for an apartment that his family sold 20 years ago.

What to do in the following cases:

1. Citizens should contact the tax service with a relevant application to cancel the wrongful assessment. This can be done through the taxpayer's electronic cabinet or by sending a written request with acknowledgment of receipt.
2. Make sure to attach copies of documents confirming the sale or transfer of the property. These documents will help the tax service quickly rectify the wrongful tax assessment.
3. It is advisable to call the tax service hotline for further clarification and to check the situation. This is important to prevent possible fines for late payment.

Experts emphasize that these actions should be taken as soon as possible to avoid further misunderstandings and additional penalties. More information and detailed examples can be found in video materials and consultations that will help understand the procedure in such situations.
