2026 fiscal calendar
Know the tax date before it becomes a penalty date.
Tax bills, payment rules, and valuation-review windows are controlled by the local jurisdiction and the governing state framework. The verified record below separates published figures from dates that require confirmation with Auglaize County Auditor / Auglaize County Treasurer.
Effective rate
Auglaize County publishes tax rates by township, municipality, school district, and tax district; no single countywide effective rate is published.
Statement mailing
Mid-January and mid-June 2026; Auglaize County Treasurer says real-estate bills are mailed around those periods, but no specific mailing dates are published.
Payment deadline
2025 real-estate taxes payable in 2026: first half due February 17, 2026 and second half due August 14, 2026.
Valuation protest
January 1–March 31, 2026 under Ohio Revised Code 5715.19 for the 2025 tax year; the county Board of Revision may accept a complaint later only when the statutory collection-date extension applies. Auglaize County's Board of Revision is composed of the Auditor, Treasurer, and a County Commissioner.
Critical payment warning
Do not assume a grace period.
The verified county record identifies the payment timing above but does not establish a universal penalty schedule for this page. Late charges, interest, collection costs, tax-sale procedures, and lien or foreclosure timelines can depend on state law and the local collector’s process. If the deadline is close or a balance is delinquent, contact the tax collector directly and request the current payoff amount in writing.
Treat the published payment deadline as a hard operational date and retain your receipt or confirmation number.
Read the calendar in order
From assessment to collection
1. Valuation and notice
Review the assessment notice as soon as it arrives. The protest window may run from the notice date rather than from the payment due date.
2. Statement and account review
Match the tax statement to the parcel or account number and confirm exemptions, assessed value, taxing units, credits, and balance.
3. Payment confirmation
Use the official collector channel, then save the receipt, transaction reference, and date posted. A bank submission is not always the same as a county posting date.
