Land Tax

443 The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (1 April 2021). As at 31 March 2021, how many land tax bills have been sent to landowners for land liable for land tax as at 30 June 2020?

(a) How many bills remain unsent as at 31 March 2021?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

As at 21 May 2021, 39,323 land tax bills have been sent to landowners for land tax liable as at 30 June 2020, with approximately 13,500 bills remaining unsent due to the significant complexity of the tax arrangements of a number of land owners. However, not all of these land owners will necessarily end up receiving a bill following their land tax assessment by RevenueSA.

It may well be that some land owners are under the land value threshold and will not receive a bill. Some of these people will also be eligible for the 100 per cent relief on the increase in land tax above $2,500 (and below $102,500) due to aggregation changes in 2020-21.
