  • Posted by: Seth Gyamfi

Effective January 1, 2023, the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) will be partnering the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) in the collection of property rates in the country using a Unified Common Property Rate Platform.

The Unified Common Property Rate Platform also known as Myassembly.gov.gh is a complete end-to-end district revenue collection and administration platform designed to enhance the collection and accounting of property rates. It is also linked to the Ghana.gov.gh payment platform.

In a meeting held with the DCE in his office on the 16th of march 2023, the new system was introduced.

This platform comes with a lot of benefits to property owners and rate payers such as;
Elimination of cash transactions / payments to staff of the Assembly
Payment of bills using mobile money, electronic cards, bank payments, etc.
Full automation of bill distribution, notifications and alerts to clients
A self-service portal for reviewing ratable values, rate bills, checking balances, etc.
Access to real time reporting of receipts and bills status, amongst others.
All property owners and property rate payers are entreated to use this platform for the payment of property rates.
