Nevada County offers property tax bills by email

Nevada County has begun offering property tax bills electronically, placing it among the first counties in California to make e-bills available.

Electronic delivery

The program gives taxpayers the option to receive property tax bills by email. It is a change in how the county delivers billing notices, while the underlying property tax obligation remains the same.

What taxpayers should know

Taxpayers who use the electronic option will receive their bills digitally rather than through paper mail. The county’s e-bill offering is focused on delivery of the bill; the announcement does not change the amount owed or the property tax process described in the public notice.

Residents should look for instructions from Nevada County on how to use the e-bill option and how electronic delivery will work. Taxpayers who do not choose electronic delivery can continue to follow the county’s existing property tax billing process.

A statewide first

Nevada County is described as one of the first California counties to offer property tax e-bills. The development makes the county an early adopter of electronic delivery for this local government service.

The county’s announcement gives residents another way to receive property tax information and may make it easier for taxpayers who prefer digital records to keep track of their bills.
