Submitted by San Juan County

San Juan County Treasurer, Rhonda Pederson would like to remind county property owners that the second installment of property taxes and personal property taxes are due by Oct. 31. Please note that even if you deposit the envelope with your local post office, it may not be postmarked on the same day.

Plan ahead and mail your property tax payments before Oct. 30 to avoid the penalty and interest if the envelope is postmarked after Oct. 31.

For taxpayers who are enrolled in the AutoPay program, the amount shown on the second half coupon from your most recent tax statement will be drafted from your account on Oct. 25.

Property taxes may be paid in person at the San Juan County Courthouse, 350 Court Street, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday or placed in our drop box at the treasurer’s office, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Credit card payments or electronic checks may be made online at sanjuanco.com/treasurer or by phone, 877-816-9299. Instructions for both are on the back of the tax statement. The service provider charges a 2.5 percent fee for credit card payments, $2.00 fee for an electronic check or $3.95 fee for a debit card transaction.

To verify whether your taxes have been paid, please check our website at sanjuanco.com/treasurer. If you have other questions or need additional information, please contact our office at 360-378-2171.
