Tax bills & filing dates

These are the dates and qualifications recorded in the directory. Confirm your tax year and current deadline with the official office and your property’s notice.

Payment deadline
December 20, 2026 is Georgia's statutory default ad valorem payment deadline; a local governing authority may instead set December 1 or November 15 or use installment billing, so verify the county bill. Georgia law gives taxpayers 60 days from the tax-bill postmark before interest accrues.
Assessment appeal
45 days from the mailing date of the notice of assessment; the appeal is filed with the county Board of Tax Assessors and must be postmarked by that deadline.
