Tax Collector

A tax collector is a government official responsible for collecting taxes owed by individuals and businesses. Taxes are mandatory payments made to fund public services, such as education, infrastructure, and healthcare. The tax collector ensures that these payments are collected on time, which helps maintain the government's ability to operate and provide services. This role may involve administering tax laws, identifying unpaid taxes, and working with taxpayers to resolve issues or set up payment plans. Tax collection is crucial for any government’s functioning and economic stability.
