Property Tax | Concord, NH - Official Website

Billing Process

The City of Concord bills twice each year and collects taxes quarterly. Payments are due July 1, October 1, January 2, and March 31. The July and October bills are estimates, each based upon 25% of the prior year’s total bill (four quarters). The January 2 and March 31 payments are final bills for the year. Each represents one quarter of the total amount due, adjusted by the estimated July and October bills. The city sends the July and October bills in a single mailing on or about June 1. The January and March bills are mailed about December 1. Your bill for the four quarters (July, October, January and March) is based upon a property assessment for the prior April 1 (RSA 76:2).

NEW! Property Tax Bill / Payment

For your convenience, the City of Concord provides you with several easy ways to pay your bill. Avoid searching for parking and waiting in line. You can now pay your property tax bill using an electronic check (ACH), or credit card by touch tone telephone (IVR) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, or online. Online payments can be made by utilizing our new online software (Click on "Citizen Self Service" and then "Real Estate."). You can search for your property by any one of the fields listed. Alternatively, you can pay over the phone by dialing 1-833-270-5924. You will need your property tax bill year and bill number for this service. For either payment method, you will need your bank routing (ABA) number and your bank account number if paying by credit card. There is a small convenience fee for the online or phone payment service.

You will be given credit for payment as of the date the payment is made, and it will show on your account in real time. Please note, when entering your ABA number, take this from your check and verify the number is correct, as errors will be rejected by your bank and subject you to our returned check fees. Also note, this information is not being verified against your bank account for accuracy or funds. The confirmation you receive and print only shows you have completed this transaction and it will now go to your bank for processing.

You can, as usual, pay your bill through the mail using the envelope and properly dated coupon provided with the bill. Payments can be made in person at the Collection Office. Bring your bill and coupon with you for proper credit. Office hours are 8 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. The office is open Thursday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. To avoid long lines, it is best to visit the office mid-week, mid-month.

You could also place your payment in the mail slot located at the front of the counter located in the lobby of City Hall. After hours, you can place a payment in the mail box at the bottom of the front steps of City Hall. These boxes are checked each morning and afternoon daily and you are given credit for the day you drop the payment off.

Please include the proper coupon and note your account number/parcel ID on the check to ensure the proper credit.

Bill Pay Payments

Please note that if you pay both your water and your property tax bills via bill pay you need to set up two different vendors.

For property tax payments the vendor must be:City of Concord Tax OfficePO Box 9582Manchester, New Hampshire 03108-9582.

For water and sewer payments the vendor must be:City of Concord Water DepartmentPO Box 9622Manchester, New Hampshire 03108-9622.

Please schedule your payment at least 7-10 days prior to the due date to ensure that the payment is received timely.

Paying Your Tax Bill Late

If you cannot pay on time, payments will be accepted late, but interest will be charged. State law requires that the City charge 8% interest prorated on a daily basis on all balances due beyond the due dates. The City has no ability to waive this interest. We strongly encourage you to make regular payments. This will not, however, prevent interest from accruing on delinquent balances. Please call the Collection Office for further information or visit the Real Estate Section on the Citizen Self-Service Portal.
