Service Fees

Glynn County Tax Office does not charge, collect, or retain any portion of card processing fees.  The fee is charged and collected by our third-party vendor and is then split between the credit card companies and the third-party vendor to cover the cost of this service.
 
These service fees make convenient online payments possible. It would not be financially prudent for our office to pay these convenience fees with taxpayer dollars, particularly for those taxpayers who do not elect to use these methods of payment.
 
We offer this strictly as a convenience. We have found that taxpayers are increasingly using these optional methods of payment to have more time to pay or to take advantage of reward programs offered by the credit card companies.     

The Glynn County Office of Tax Commissioner is pleased to offer residents an easy and convenient method to view and pay their real estate, personal property and mobile home bills online. These are fee-based services.

Credit Card payments 
Card payments have a service fee of 2.95% of the transaction amount with a $2.50 minimum. 
There is a $35 service fee for all chargebacks.
Electronic Check (ACH/EFT) payments 
Electronic Check payments have a fee of $1.50.
To avoid a return check fee of $35 you must enter correct checking/savings account information.
Corrections/Adjustments
Payments, corrections, and/or other adjustments made today may not be reflected until after 2 business days. 
 
Accepted Online 
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Electronic Check. 
 
                           

Confirmation
A confirmation email will be sent to the email address that you supplied. You may wish to save or print this email for your records. 

Current and past years' tax bills are online for payment
If property taxes from a previous year are owed on the taxed property, payment of the prior year tax cannot be accepted online at this time, because of additional steps required to process such payments. It is recommended that taxpayers contact the Glynn County Tax office to inquire or pay any previous year property taxes owed.


In office
 
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, Cash, Check, Money Order and Cashier’s Check.
Open Monday-Friday from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. (Excluding Holidays)

*American Express is not accepted for Motor Vehicle transactions. 



Mortgage Companies

Typically, your mortgage company will have an escrow account set aside for paying property taxes. However, we do not send bills to the mortgage holder. Although your mortgage company offers you the convenience of paying your property taxes through escrow, ultimately you must ensure your taxes are paid on time no matter who is handling the payment.

Understanding your tax bill



Partial & Late Payments

Generally partial payments are not accepted. However, if your account has delinquent tax, we will apply payment to the oldest bill first, then the remainder towards the next oldest tax bill if applicable. Payments made after the due date are considered late. As a result, you will be charged:

5% penalty on the principal amount past due, every 120 days, up to 20% of the bill. 
Interest every month you are late. 

If you do not pay your taxes at all, your property may be subject to a Fi. Fa. (tax lien) and eventually put up for tax sale.  Find out more about Fi. Fa. and tax sales on our delinquent taxes page.

If your property is subject to a Fi. Fa. you will also be charged any administrative fees associated with issuing the Fi. Fa.


New Owner

State law requires all bills be sent to the owner as of January 1st. If you have sold property, please forward the bill to the new owner. 

If you purchased property after January 1st of the tax year you will not receive the tax bill. Look for it to be forwarded to you from the previous owner or visit us at our office to make payment.  


Making Tax Payments on Property that is Not in Your Name

You may pay tax on properties that are not in your name. However, doing so does not allow you any claim of ownership to the property, regardless of how much you have paid, or how many years you have paid. Additionally, refund requests will not be honored if you change your mind.

Having your name listed on the tax receipt does not give ownership.
