The Lagos State Government has announced the release of the 2025 Land Use Charge (LUC) bills, encouraging property owners across the state to take advantage of a 15% discount if they pay their bills within 30 days of receiving them. This incentive is part of the government’s broader strategy to improve compliance and ease the financial burden on property owners.

The Lagos State Ministry of Finance made this announcement, emphasizing that the bills have already been distributed and are available via physical delivery, electronic notifications, and online portals. This multi-channel approach is designed to ensure that all property owners can easily access their bills and make timely payments.

Convenient Payment Options

To make the process more convenient, property owners have been advised to pay directly into designated Lagos State Government accounts, using the Owner ID, LUC Number, or Invoice Number as references. Payments can be made through:

  • Commercial banks
  • Mobile banking apps
  • The official Lagos State LUC payment portal (https://Lagos.ebs-rcm.com)

Enforcement and Penalties for Non-Compliance

The Ministry of Finance also reminded the public that delayed or non-payment of the Land Use Charge could result in penalties. This could include additional fines, property sealing, or other enforcement actions allowed under the Land Use Charge Law. As such, property owners are strongly urged to pay promptly to avoid these consequences.

Public Inquiries and Support

For property owners needing assistance, the Lagos State Land Use Charge Customer Service is available through various contact channels, including phone lines, emails, and physical help desks across the state. This ensures that residents can quickly resolve billing issues or obtain clarifications.

Drive for Increased Revenue

The Land Use Charge is a critical revenue source for Lagos State, funding essential public services such as infrastructure development, waste management, healthcare, and education. The government’s offer of a 15% discount for early payment aims to boost compliance while lessening the financial strain on residents.

With the 2025 Land Use Charge bills now available, the Lagos State Government is urging property owners to take advantage of the 15% discount within the stipulated 30 days. Prompt payment not only secures this financial relief but also helps the government continue delivering critical services to the growing population of Africa’s largest city.
