How many years is the statute of limitations for the collection of property fees?

Legal analysis: the statute of limitations is three years. It shall be counted from the time when the obligee knows or should know that the right has been infringed. Limitation of action means that the obligee whose civil rights have been infringed fails to exercise his rights within the statutory limitation period, and when the limitation period expires, the debtor obtains the defense right of limitation of action.

Legal basis: Article 188 of the Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) requests the people's court to protect civil rights, and the limitation of action is three years. Where there are other provisions in the law, those provisions shall prevail.

The limitation period of action shall be counted from the date when the creditor knows or should know that the right is damaged and the debtor knows it. Where there are other provisions in the law, those provisions shall prevail. However, the people's court shall not protect the rights that have been damaged for more than 20 years. Under special circumstances, the people's court may decide to extend the time according to the application of the obligee.
