Convenient online payment options available in
over 50 Arkansas counties
The statewide personal and real estate property tax payment
deadline is October 15. Citizens in over 50 Arkansas counties can
avoid late fees and in-person payment lines by paying their
property taxes online before the deadline. A directory of
participating counties and secure mobile payment sites is available
at ar.gov/tax.
“It’s important that citizens realize that their property taxes
directly support their communities,” said Debra Buckner, Pulaski
County Treasurer. “Funding for our schools, libraries, jails,
county government, and hospital is made possible by property taxes.
Pulaski County is proud to provide an online property tax payment
service through our partnership with the Information Network of
Arkansas. We introduced this payment option years ago and it has
been extremely helpful in getting tax payments in on time.”
To make a secure payment on a computer or mobile device,
taxpayers just need to enter the parcel or tax-id numbers provided
on their tax statements, or search by their name or address. The
online service provides a payment confirmation and printable
receipt. Payments can be made online until 11:59 p.m. October 15.
Buckner said now is a good time to pay taxes online and avoid
standing in line on October 15.
“Our office and tax collector locations around the state
typically have lines in the days leading up to the deadline,” said
Buckner. “No matter where you live, it’s much easier to visit
ar.gov/tax and pay your property taxes in just a few mouse clicks
or taps on your phone.”
While paying property taxes online, residents in many counties
can also sign up to receive an email notification in March when
their annual tax statement is available. Taxpayers who sign up for
this new convenience will no longer receive annual tax statements
in the mail but will still get paper statements if their taxes are
adjusted throughout the year. Buckner says going paperless is the
easiest way for taxpayers to find and pay their tax bill
online.
Citizens who pay their taxes online will also have the
opportunity to sign up for Gov2Go, the first-of-its-kind, personal
assistant that tracks assessment, property tax, and vehicle
registration renewal deadlines and enables citizens to quickly
complete all these tasks right from their smartphones. Current
Gov2Go users will receive timely email, SMS, and push notifications
via the Gov2Go app, reminding them of the approaching property tax
deadline and prompting them to visit the property tax center to
learn how to pay in their county. Pulaski County residents who
choose to visit the tax collector offices can avoid the lines by
using a self-service iPad kiosk to pay their property tax bill with
a credit card and get an email receipt.
