Kathmandu, Feb. 11
The online payment
service provider company 'Khalti' has added a facility to pay tax to the Kathmandu
Metropolitan City via online app from their home.
Taxpayers will be able
to pay the taxes of the metropolis like land, house, rent, vehicle, means and
business through Khalti.
Binay Khadka, Chief
Executive Officer of Khalti, said, "We are confident that it will be
easier for the residents of the area to pay their taxes and service charges
online at the local level. We also hope that it will be easier and safer to use
the service at home during the current COVID-19 pandemic.”
However, taxpayers
should first register them at the KMC's taxpayer portal
eservice.kathmandu.gov.np to use the online tax payment facility. The app will
assess the tax details needed to pay to the KMC.
Khalti has more than 2
million active users throughout the country alongside a network of 30,000
agents, the company said in a statement.
From Khalti, the users
can top-up their phone, TV, pay their internet bill, insurance premiums, government
revenues, waste management bills and buy domestic flight tickets.
