New Online Option to Pay County Real Estate Taxes Rolling Out to Additional County Districts
New, online payment option for current annual county/municipal real estate taxes
https://paytaxonline.countyofberks.com/CurrentYearTax/
Delinquent county/municipal property tax payments
https://www.countyofberks.com/departments/tax-claim-bureau/delinquent-tax-search
This online option is for county/municipal real estate taxes only. Delinquent taxes, school taxes, and any other taxes (such as per capita) are not paid through this site. Delinquent tax payments can be made via the Tax Claim website.
If choosing this option to pay outstanding current year real estate taxes, a service fee will be applied by the vendor for all payments processed. These fees are not collected by the county or any associated municipality. The service fee is calculated when the credit card option is selected during the payment process. The associated fee will display in the “service fee” field on the screen and the total will be adjusted accordingly. After the total has been updated, if the taxpayer chooses to continue with the online payment, they will enter their payment information and complete the online payment process.
Tax parcels can be searched online to see if there are outstanding annual or interim tax bills. When searching a parcel, the system will display a listing of any outstanding bill(s) and the current amount due. The tax amount due reflects the current period of collection and may change as time passes. Copies of the bills are not provided. If you wish to request a copy of a tax bill, please contact the appropriate municipal tax collector. If a tax bill has been paid, the parcel search will respond with a note indicating the current bill has been paid and no data will be displayed. This search should not be used as a replacement for certifications of taxes paid. Certification of Taxes Paid should still be requested from the appropriate tax collector.
Questions regarding the online payment options should be directed to the Berks County Treasurer’s Office at 610-478-6640.
