Alameda County Property Tax News & Announcements - 08/06/2024 (original) (raw)
This is a reminder that the 2024-2025 Unsecured Property Tax is due on Tuesday, September 3, 2024, because August 31, 2024 is on a Saturday and September 2, 2024 is a legal holiday (RTC 2922).
If not paid by this date, the tax will include a delinquent penalty of 10% and a delinquent cost of $50.00. If not paid by October 31, 2024, an additional 1.5% interest will accrue on the first of each month, starting November 1, 2024.
You can get information about your tax including payment status, submitting a payment by eCheck or credit card or get answers to Frequently Asked Questions at the Alameda County Tax Collector's Web Page or by phone at (510) 272-6800. Please note the payment information on our website is the same information from our agents.
Mail Early! Penalty is charged on all late postmarks. As a reminder we only honor US Post Office postmarks as receipt date. We encourage everyone to pay the property taxes safely using the following non-contact options:
- Mail in your check, postmarked by the United States Postal Services (USPS) on or before September 3, 2024
- Pay online either by eCheck (free of charge) or credit card with a small convenience fee of 2.3% - Tax Payment Web Page

- Pay through your bank's Bill-Pay service. This must be done well before September 3, 2024 to allow your bank's processing system enough time to process your request and mail the payment to our office; use your unsecured account number to identify your property tax bill
