Obion County, Tennessee property-tax payment and appeal deadlines
Tax bills, payment rules, and valuation-review windows are controlled by the local jurisdiction and the governing state framework. The reviewed record below separates published figures from items that still require confirmation with Obion County Assessor of Property (Judy Smith).
Rate context
Confirmofficial sources reviewed do not publish a single 2026 countywide effective rate; county and city taxing authorities set applicable rates.
Statement mailing
Confirmofficial Obion County sources state that tax notices are sent by the Trustee but do not publish a specific 2026 mailing date.
Payment deadline
Published2026 Obion County property taxes become due October 5, 2026 (the first Monday in October) and may be paid through February 28, 2027 without interest; unpaid taxes become delinquent March 1, 2027.
Valuation protest
PublishedThe Obion County Board of Equalization begins its 2026 regular session June 1, 2026; the official county source does not publish a final session date. Appeal to the State Board by August 1, 2026 or 45 days after the county decision notice, whichever is later; see https://comptroller.tn.gov/boards/state-board-of-equalization/value-appeals.html.
Do not assume a grace period.
The reviewed 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 a published payment deadline as a hard operational date and retain your receipt or confirmation number.
From assessment to collection
01Valuation 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.
02Statement and account review
Match the tax statement to the parcel or account number and confirm exemptions, assessed value, taxing units, credits, and balance.
03Payment 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.
