Torreón 100% Property Tax Penalty Reduction Through November

Property owners in Torreón with overdue municipal accounts can clear their historic debt through a new municipal program offering a 100 percent reduction on accumulated penalties and surcharges. The relief measure, launched to support household finances, covers past-due property taxes alongside pavement and public cleaning rights for individual taxpayers.

Extending Fiscal Incentives Throughout November

Municipal authorities structured the fiscal stimulus to run from the start of November through November 30, 2026. While the initiative aligns closely with the commercial promotion period of the Buen Fin, local officials deliberately widened the timeframe to span the entire month. According to data from the municipal treasury, this decision provides residents with an operational window covering three consecutive payroll quincenas. The strategy of collection implemented for this period responds additionally to a statistical analysis of collection cycles from previous years, which show very specific influx peaks during the days following payroll disbursements.

Municipal Treasurer Javier Lechuga Jiménez Labora explained that the annual strategy provides concrete mechanisms for citizens to settle past property tax obligations without absorbing the heavy impact of late fees. The forgiveness program targets strictly the accumulated penalties, surcharges, and secondary service fees. It leaves the principal tax contribution amount entirely unchanged.

Payment Channels Across Supermarkets and Convenience Stores

Taxpayers seeking to settle their accounts can bypass lines at municipal offices by utilizing private retail collection networks, where accounts can be settled directly across various local commercial chains. The inhabitants of Torreón who seek to get caught up with their property tax payment have various alternatives to complete the procedure without needing to go directly to the municipal offices.

• Supermarkets: Soriana, Walmart, Bodega Aurrera, and Al Súper.
• Convenience stores: OXXO, Seven, CBMAS, Circle K, Extra, Punto +, and One Stop.
• Pharmacies: Farmacias Benavides and Farmacias El Ahorro.

These commercial outposts accept payments covering property tax along with associated pavings and public cleaning rights. For those preferring digital alternatives, the Municipality of Torreón digital platform allows property owners to input their cadastral keys, verify outstanding balances, and safely download updated account statements. Those who prefer to avoid travel can check their account statement through the official portal of the Municipality, entering their cadastral key to review balances, and securely download and print their updated statements.

Exclusions and Special Protections for Retirees

The municipal initiative applies strictly to physical persons, leaving commercial and industrial accounts outside the scope of the debt relief program. Property owners managing corporate assets cannot access the penalty elimination.

At the same time, the administration preserves its standing policy for vulnerable populations. Retired citizens, pensioners, and senior adults continue to receive a permanent 50 percent reduction on regular property tax calculations, a right that will be added to the total elimination of fines and complementary charges if the applicant presents previous arrears.

Payments remain available at the central Presidencia Municipal and the Antiguo Banco de México cash desks, where the treasury notes that select credit cards offer interest-free installment options. Officials urge taxpayers to manage their paperwork ahead of the final November deadline to avoid heavy congestion during the closing days of the fiscal incentive window.
