A spokesman for the tax service said that there is always a numéro fiscal shown on a tax avis (bill) - including for local taxes – so if you check your bills again you should find one was allocated.
He said the simplest method is to pay by télépaiement (internet payment) which you do by indicating the numéro fiscal and a reference number from the avis, at this link tinyurl.com/pgvpvqa.
As of this year, tax bills (whether income tax or local taxes) above €300 cannot be paid by either cheque, TIP or bank transfer.
Options include monthly direct debit instalments, prélèvement à l’échéance (a direct debit of a local tax bill from your account 10 days after the deadline date) or by direct internet payment.
