The County of Prince Edward reminds taxpayers that Friday, March 15 is the deadline to pay 2024 interim tax bills for all properties.
The County sent out the 2024 interim tax notices for all properties on February 15, 2024.
The County mailed a paper copy of the 2024 interim tax notices to its electronic billing customers.
Failure to receive a tax notice does not absolve the property owner from any taxes due or from penalty charges for late payment. Accounts in arrears will be subject to interest of 1.25% on March 15, 2024, and on the first day of each month that they remain unpaid.
If you did not receive your tax notice, please contact the Tax Department by email at tax@pecounty.on.ca or by phone at 613.476.2148 extension 1530.
Property owners are encouraged to make payments online or by mail. The following methods of payment are available:
- Electronic payments through online or telephone banking services by searching “Prince Edward” and selecting the payee that references County Taxes. Use the roll number (no dashes) as the account number.
