To receive a discount, tax payments MUST be made timely. Due dates are November 15, 2022, February 15, 2023, and May 15, 2023.  Tax payments delivered, U.S. postmarked, transmitted by private express carrier, or paid online via the Douglas County website on or before a due date will be considered timely. Interest is charged on any past due installment for the schedule you choose at the rate of 1.333% monthly, 16% annually. When calculating delinquent interest, the time period runs from the 16th of the preceding month to the 15th of the current month. If the 15th falls on a weekend day, the due date is extended to the first business day of the week. 

Where tax accounts show taxes due for more than one tax year, payments MUST first be applied to the earliest year that taxes are due.

If your property tax statement is yellow, a mortgage company or the senior/disabled citizen deferral program has requested tax information to pay your tax bill. If you have any questions regarding who is paying your property tax bill, contact your mortgage company.

An online tax payment is a service provided by a financial institution charging a convenience fee.  If paying by credit card, you will be charged a convenience fee of 2.49% (for a tax payment of $1,000 a convenience fee of $24.90 will be added for a total charge to your card of $1,024.90).  If paying by debit card you will be charged a $3.95 per payment transaction.  If paying by e-check you will be charged $3.00 per payment transaction. 

Use of these convenience services is voluntary.  There is no fee for payments made to the Douglas County Tax Collector by check, money order, or cashier's check (please convert cash to one of these forms of payment) when made by mail or left in a designated drop box. Please do not send cash through the mail.
