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 Floyd County Appraisal District.
Effective rate
Texas property tax rates are set separately by local taxing units; no single countywide effective 2026 rate is published by the appraisal district. See the local Truth-in-Taxation database for adopted rates.
Statement mailing
October 1, 2026, or as soon thereafter as practicable under Texas Tax Code §31.01; the county-specific 2026 mailing date was not published.
Payment deadline
Due upon receipt; pay by January 31, 2027; unpaid taxes are delinquent February 1, 2027, subject to the Texas Tax Code §1.06 weekend/holiday adjustment.
Valuation protest
May 15, 2026, or the 30th day after the 2026 Notice of Appraised Value is mailed, whichever is later, under Texas Tax Code §41.44; the local notice controls.
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.
