Crown rent payers who have not received their demand notes should bring along those for any previous period to any of the Treasury collection offices.
Duplicate demand notes will be issued to them. Payment can then be made at any of these offices.
If the payers cannot produce demand notes for any previous period, they should enquire at the Crown Rent Unit of the Treasury at Immigration Tower, 30th floor, 7 Gloucester Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong.
Non-receipt of the demand notes does not alter the requirement that the Crown rents must be paid by June 24, the spokesman said.
Crown rent payers who have submitted a valid direct debit authorisation should note that if the wording "Payment To Be Made By Autopay" is shown on the demand notes, payment will be made by direct debit to their bank accounts on June 24.
They should then ensure that their bank accounts contain the necessary funds on that date.
If the above wording is not shown, they should pay according to the instructions as set out in the demand notes.
To save queuing time, the spokesman urged Crown rent payers to use the Payment by Phone Service, or pay by post using cheques or cashier orders, or by early personal attendance at any of the collection offices.
However, the most convenient payment method is autopay under which Crown rent payers' bank accounts will only be debited on Crown rent due dates, he said.
Applications for autopay are obtainable from Treasury collection offices, district offices and all major banks in Hong Kong or by telephoning 2829 4999.
