  3. Pre-Authorized payment for Property Taxes may be arranged by completing the Tax Payment form
  4. Mail: P.O. Box 249, Burford, ON N0E 1A0

Additional tax payment information

Online banking

  • Set up internet/telephone banking with your own bank or credit union
  • Enter payee as "Brant County Taxes"
  • Enter your 19 digit roll number, starting with 2920

For help with online banking, contact your bank or credit union.

Credit card 

To pay by credit card there will be a fee of 2.6% in addition to your payment.  Fill out our Credit Card Payment Form. 

Paying by cheque

  • Include the installment stub with your payment to make sure we credit it properly to your account
  • Write your property roll number(s) directly on any cheque
  • You can submit post-dated cheques for due date payments

Through your mortgage company

If your mortgage company is responsible for paying your taxes, forward your bill to them as soon as possible to make sure your payment occurs before the due date.

Through pre-authorized payment plan

We can automatically withdraw payments from your bank account on pre-determined dates.

Learn more about the Pre-Authorized Payment Plan.

Unacceptable method of payment

You cannot pay your property taxes over-the-counter at a bank.

Late payments

Penalty and/or interest are calculated on the overdue tax balance the first day of every month at a rate of 1.25% until paid. Payment must be received on or before the due date to avoid these charges. The County does not accept the postmark as proof of the date of receipt.

If you do not receive a tax bill, you are still responsible for paying it and you are still liable for the penalty for late payment. The County tax collector has no authority to waive or change penalty and/or interest charges for any reason.

If you make a payment at the bank, there is no guarantee that the payment will be made on time.

 Other tips
  • Keep your bills and receipts safe. You will have to pay a fee to get a duplicate tax bill or written receipt.
  • For income tax purposes, normally only the amount on the Ontario Tax Credit schedule is needed. You do not need to send a copy of your tax bill or a receipt unless you are specifically asked.

Property Tax Statements/Certificates

Property Tax Statements/Tax Certificates can be requested online by submitting the Tax Certificate form.
