Pay your taxes

The Township of Uxbridge offers a number of methods for you to pay your taxes.

Online banking

You can pay your taxes online or over the phone through your bank. Online, login to your bank and add a new payee. Each bank lists payees differently so search by Township of Uxbridge Taxes. Once found, enter your 19-digit roll number starting with ‘1829'. Do not include spaces or dashes.

When selling your home, your roll number stays with the property. Please remove the old payee from your banking payment service, to avoid paying taxes to your previous address.

Property Tax Payment

Payments must be received by the installment due date. Please pay in advance to avoid late penalties.

Township of Uxbridge
51 Toronto St. S., P.O. Box 190
Uxbridge, ON L9P 1T1

The Township offers two types of pre-authorized payment plans:

  • Installment plan (pay 4 installment throughout the year) on the due date noted on your tax bill;
  • Monthly plan (pay 11 installment on the first day of each month from January to November). Your payment schedule will be on your final tax bill.

Please indicate which plan you would like on your application. To be eligible for this program, your tax account must be paid in full and must have a full assessment.

A cheque or pre-authorized payment that is returned by your bank will result in an administrative fee being added to your tax account.

Late penalties

The Township of Uxbridge must receive all tax payments by the installment due date on your tax bill. Penalty/interest will be added to unpaid taxes at a rate of 1.25% per month on the first day of each month the account remains unpaid. Late payment penalties/interest cannot be waived or reduced by Council or Staff for any reason. This policy is strictly applied to maintain fairness to all property owners. Overdue notices will include an administration fee.

Property tax bills

The Township of Uxbridge issues two tax bills per year. It is your responsibility to ensure that you receive a property tax bill and pay the bill on time. Failure to receive a tax bill does not excuse you from paying the bill or being issued a late penalty if you miss the payment due date.

Please ensure that the Township has your correct mailing address. Should you need to update your mailing address, kindly send an email to tax@uxbridge.ca including your tax roll number, municipal address, owner's name(s), new mailing address and effective date.

Interim tax bills

The interim tax bills are mailed in January of each year with installations due in February and April – due dates are on your tax bill. If you are on the Township monthly pre-authorized payment plan or if your taxes are paid by your mortgage company, then you will not receive an interim tax bill. The interim bill is based on 50% of the previous year's annualized taxes and is shown as a reduction on the final bill.

Final tax bills

Final tax bills for all properties are mailed in May, with installments due in June and September – due dates are on your tax bill.

Mortgage and trust companies that pay property taxes will receive property tax information directly from the Township.

The revised assessment information is forwarded in a report to Council for its decision. The Township will provide the property owner/applicant with written notice of the date the report will go before Council. The property owner(s) will also be notified within 14 days following Council’s decision.
