How Often and When Will I Receive a Bill?

Taxes are billed semi-annually. The first issue property tax billed amounts are an estimate only and is due on or after July 1st. It is usually mailed the middle to end of May. The estimated first bill is computed by taking the prior year's assessed valuation times one-half of the previous year's tax rate. If the Assessors determine that an individual's property has physically changed in valuation, they may use the current year's assessed value times one-half of the previous year's tax rate to compute the partial payment. Usually in late October or early November, the NH Department of Revenue calculates the tax rate. The second and final issue property tax bill is equal to the difference between the total amount of the annual tax as determined by DRA and the first issue bill. The second and final property tax bill is usually mailed by the end of November.
