Lieutenant Governor Tregenza A. Roach, Esq. reminds the public that the 2025 real property tax bill, which was issued in June, will become delinquent after August 30, 2025. Lieutenant Governor Roach urges taxpayers to adhere to that deadline to avoid added interest and penalties.
“Although the bill carries a June 30, 2025 due date, legislation makes it payable up to August 30, 2025 without added interest or penalties.” stated Lieutenant Governor Roach. “Taxpayers are reminded that while payments to the portal can be made up to midnight August 30, 2025, in person payments must be made by the close of business on Friday, August 29, 2025.”
Property owners may pay their property tax bill online at https://propertytax.vi.gov. Upon payment of all due property taxes, property owners may also request, remit payment for and receive a Tax Clearance Certificate on the same online web portal.
Property owners that did not receive a 2025 tax bill are responsible for contacting the Office of the Tax Assessor to inform them that a property tax bill was not received. A property owner that wishes to challenge the valuation of their 2025 property tax bill, may:
- File an Informal Review with the Office of the Tax Assessor in their District within 45 calendar days after the issuance of the tax bill.
OR
- File a Formal Appeal with the Board of Tax Review. Property owners who wish to file an appeal, may contact the Virgin Islands Department of Finance at (340) 774-4750.

Payment of property taxes does not confer property ownership rights to the tax payor.
Any property that has a current payment plan, will not be forwarded for final collection activity. Also, any property which is involved in probate and has been duly registered as a probated property with the Office of the Tax Collector, will not be forwarded for final collection activity.
