1st Qtr Property Taxes Due
Description
Property Taxes Due Date: 2/1. There is a 10 day grace period until 2/10.
Bill pay from your bank: Payments should be scheduled in advance of due date to allow sufficient mailing days for the Borough to receive, process and apply the payment. Electronic payment for taxes are not accepted. Payments must be received by 4pm on the 10th day of the grace period. The Borough is not responsible for late payments due to delays in mail service or bank processing. It is important to include your Block and Lot, Last Name and/or Property Address for us to apply the payment to the correct account.
Online Bill Pay: (Old Tappan Payment Page) Offers convenience and ease, 24/7 access, to view account information and securely pay online. Accepted payment methods are credit card, debit card or eCheck (please note fees are charged.)
Pay with Direct Withdrawal: ACH bank draft program is in place for both taxes and sewer flow fees. Please visit our website for application forms and details or visit us in person. If you are planning to sign-up, discontinue or make a change on your direct withdrawal, you must contact our office at least two weeks before the effective date of scheduled withdrawal.
Borough mailbox: There is a mailbox in front of the Borough Hall for your convenience when Borough Hall is closed. All payments will be posted the following day. Do not use mailbox for regular mail.
Post-Dated Checks: According to NJ Statute, our office is required to deposit payments as soon as they are received and we cannot accept “post-dated” checks. Therefore, please date your check the day you write it out, just as you would if you were paying in person.
