Penalties

To avoid penalty, personal property taxes must be paid in full on or before May 15th. Personal property taxes cannot be paid in first and second half installments unless the property is situated on leased government lands; then the 1st half must be paid on or before May 15th to 2nd half before October 15th.

If you pay your first half and second half property tax after the due dates, a penalty will be added to your tax. The later you pay, the greater the penalty you must pay.

The following tables show the penalty you will pay if your property taxes due are not paid before the due date shown.
