Why I go enter my own property value myself?

No published KADGIS per-square-metre or per-zone land-value table dey for Kaduna, unlike KWGIS own zone table for Kwara — di same self-estimate gap wey Lagos, Kano, Oyo, and Kogi own land-value terms already dey use. Enter your honest estimate; your result fit no match KADGIS own assessment.

Which property dem exempt?

Seven categories under Section 69: property wey religious body own and occupy, wey dem use only for public worship or religious education; cemeteries and burial grounds; registered non-profit educational institution wey KADGIS Director-General certify; public libraries; any property wey Governor specifically exempt by Gazette Order; palaces and official residences of recognized Emirs, Chiefs, and District Heads; and full or partial relief wey KADGIS Director-General grant (by Gazette Order) for community sports/recreation non-profit property, charitable-purpose property, or Government property wey dem dey use only for public benefit, no commercial use.

Yes in principle, but no fixed percentage — Section 71(5) give KADGIS Director-General power to reduce di charge by whatever discount im dey set per demand notice if you pay within 15 days from when you receive am, instead of fixing one percentage inside di Law itself. Dis calculator dey mention di 15-day window but e no dey show discount figure, because di Law no fix any.

Only di general late-payment terms di Law contain — Section 123's 50% penalty on revenue owed and Section 36(3)'s extra 10% flat plus interest — apply to all State/Local Government revenue, no be Land Use Charge specifically, so dis calculator no dey calculate penalty.
