Property taxes due for second half of 2018

Property owners in King County who pay their taxes themselves, rather than through their mortgage lender, have until Wednesday, October 31 to pay the second half of their 2018 property taxes. After that date, interest charges and penalties will be added to the tax bill.

To make the process easier, King County provides several options for quick and easy payment. Tax payments can be made:

  • Online using King County's convenient, secure online eCommerce system. Taxpayers may pay accounts with a credit card or an electronic debit from a checking account.
  • By mail if postmarked no later than October 31, 2018. Taxpayers should include their tax statement and write the property tax account number on their check or money order. Cash should not be sent through the mail.
  • At King County Community Service Centers if paid by check for the exact amount due. Taxpayers can find the address, phone number, and operating hours of the center in their area by visiting kingcounty.gov/CSC.
  • In person at Treasury Operations, sixth floor of the King County Administration Building, 500 Fourth Ave. in Seattle. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am to 4:30pm. On Wednesday, October 31, Treasury Operations will be open until 5pm.

The online option provides immediate payment confirmation for current year or delinquent year(s) property tax bills. Pay online or view property tax information HERE. While there, taxpayers can also sign up for Property Tax eReminders, which are sent around April 1 and October 1 each year.

For questions about missing tax statements or other tax payment information, click HERE, contact King County Treasury Operations by email, or contact a customer service specialist at 206-263-2890.

Information on senior citizen exemption and deferral programs can be obtained from the King County Assessor's Office HERE or 206-296-3920.
