The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) has announced the successful implementation of Property Tax administration within the Sustainable Modernized Administration Revenue Tax System (SMARTS). Starting in 2026, Property Tax Demand Notices will be delivered online, allowing taxpayers to access and manage their obligations digitally. This rollout is being executed in phases, with the initial phase focusing on St. Kitts. The transition aims to modernize tax collection, improve efficiency, and enhance the overall taxpayer experience. By moving Property Tax processes to the SMARTS platform, the IRD seeks to streamline administration, reduce manual workload, and provide greater transparency. The department emphasizes that this upgrade supports national development goals by ensuring timely revenue collection and enabling better financial planning. Taxpayers are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the new system and take advantage of the online services available. For further details, residents can visit the official IRD website or contact the department directly. This initiative reflects the government's commitment to leveraging technology for improved public services and fiscal management across the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis.
