Ciudad Juárez, Chih. – The Municipal Government of Ciudad Juárez has reported a significant surge in property tax (Impuesto Predial) collections for the month of October 2026. Official data indicates that the municipality collected 49,104,438 pesos, representing a 33.7 percent increase compared to the same period in 2025, when collections totaled 36,730,623 pesos.
Boost Driven by Fiscal Incentives
Carlos Israel Nájera Payán, the General Coordinator of Social Communication for the Municipality, confirmed that the revenue increase amounted to 12,373,815 pesos year-over-year. According to municipal authorities, this growth is primarily attributed to a strategic fiscal incentive program that offers a 100 percent discount on surcharges for outstanding property tax debts.
Official records show that the number of payments processed also saw a notable rise. In October 2026, the city registered 6,278 payments, compared to 5,268 during the same month in 2025. This constitutes an increase of 1,010 transactions, or approximately 19.2 percent in volume.
Incentives Continue Through Year-End
The municipal program is not limited to property taxes; it also includes a 50 percent discount on surcharges for traffic violation fines. Nájera Payán explained that these measures are designed to help taxpayers regularize their financial obligations before the end of the year, taking advantage of seasonal resources such as year-end bonuses (aguinaldos) and other labor benefits.
The authorities have confirmed that these 100 percent discounts on property tax surcharges and 50 percent discounts on traffic fine surcharges will remain in effect throughout November and December 2026. The objective of extending these benefits is to facilitate the regularization of accounts, allowing citizens to begin January 2027 without outstanding property tax debts.
The October results reflect both an increase in municipal revenue and a higher level of citizen participation in clearing fiscal arrears. Municipal officials continue to encourage residents to utilize these remaining opportunities to settle their accounts.
