Escambia Property Tax Discount Ends Soon

December 27, 2016

Escambia County Tax Collector Janet Holley reminds everyone that the three percent discount on payment of real estate and tangible personal property taxes ends Saturday, December 31. All tax collector offices will be open normal business hours on Friday, December 30.

To receive the three percent discount, payments must be:

·         mailed with a December postmark;

·         left by midnight, December 31, in a 24-hour drop box available at all locations; or

·         made online by midnight CST, December 31 at EscambiaTaxCollector.com.

Since all offices are closed December 31, January 1 and 2, customers who make their payment in person at any tax collector office on Tuesday, January 3, will receive the three percent discount, however, their payment will be dated January 3, 2017 not December 31, 2016.

We also offer a more convenient way to wait in line for walk-in services. Customers who do not have an appointment can still save time by texting an office location to join a line immediately. With this system, customers can check in from anywhere, receive status updates, and be able to request additional time, if necessary.

Text the office location to (850) 344-1875 (after 8:30 a.m.):
