Personal Property Taxes

Personal Property taxes are billed out once a year in two installments, July and January.  The Tax Office does not rebill for the January installment. Per state statute there is no proration of personal property accounts.  Therefore, if the business is in existence as of October 1 of any given year the full year’s taxes will be due and payable.  Please remember to fill out and submit the Personal Property Declaration form to the Assessor’s Office to avoid a 25% penalty by the deadline.  Address changes must be submitted by form to the Assessor’s Office and Tax Office (see Address Change Form). Personal property may be paid with check, cash, credit or debit.

Delinquent personal property taxes may be liened with the State of Connecticut and placed into collections.  Additional fees may apply. If your personal property account is placed in collection, you must pay the collection entity.
