When are my property taxes due?
Taxes are due and payable on October 1, and are delinquent if not paid on or before January 31. State law requires that penalty and interest be charged on taxes paid after January 31. If you have any questions, email propertytax@dallascounty.org, or call our Customer Care Center at 214-653-7811.
I never received a tax statement; what should I do?
You can find out how much your taxes are and make your payment by going to the Property Tax Lookup/Payment Application. You can also email your request for a tax statement to propertytax@dallascounty.org, or call our Customer Care Center 214-653-7811.

Why did my tax statement come to me instead of my mortgage company?
Either your mortgage company did not request the statement, or the request was received too late. Please contact your mortgage company for additional information.
My address is not correct on my bill, how do I get it corrected?
Contact your local Appraisal District.
Why did I receive a tax bill on property I no longer own?
The records showed you as the owner when the bills were printed. Contact your local Appraisal District to correct this.
