MDTM Seizes Three Houses in Taman Desa Barakah Due to Over 15 Years of Outstanding Assessment Tax

TANAH MERAH, 27 JULY 2026 (MONDAY) – The Tanah Merah District Council today carried out an Asset Seizure and Detention Operation on three residential premises in Taman Desa Barakah following the owners' failure to settle outstanding Assessment Tax (Door Tax) for many years.

This enforcement action was carried out in accordance with the legal provisions under Form F (Detention Warrant), Section 148 of the Local Government Act 1976. The inspection of the Detention Warrant Notice found that some of the premises owners had failed to complete the payment of assessment tax from 2006 to 2025.

During the operation, MDTM enforcement officers installed seizure barricades at the main entrance of the premises and posted official notice notices. This step was taken to ensure that the movable property within the premises is detained until all outstanding amounts and related costs are fully explained.

The Tanah Merah District Council wishes to emphasize that Assessment Tax is an important local revenue source that is returned to the people in the form of municipal services including infrastructure maintenance, area cleaning, solid waste management, and street lighting.

Therefore, premises owners with outstanding accounts are urged to visit the MDTM Office as soon as possible to make checks, full payments, or discuss with the Valuation and Property Management Division regarding payment schedule planning.

The cooperation and concern of all residents are highly appreciated to ensure the well-being and smooth development of the municipality in the Tanah Merah District.
