Broward County Tax Collector

Property taxes are gathered annually starting on November 1 of the tax year, which runs from January through December. The value of property and exemptions is determined by the Broward County Property Appraiser. The tax roll is also created and certified by the Property Appraiser. The rates at which property is taxed are known as millage rates, and they are set by the Board of County Commissioners and other taxing bodies. By November 1 of each year, Taxes and Treasury Division prints and sends tax notices to property owners.

Property taxes are due on November 1, must be paid by March 31, and are delinquent on April 1. Tax bills paid in full between November 1 and February 28 qualify for early-payment discounts. (4% in November, 3% in December, 2% in January, 1% in February ).

How to Use Tax Estimator?

If you want to approximate your property tax, you can use the Tax Estimator Page which is offered by the Broward County Property Appraiser.

Tax Estimator

You should select the city where your home is, enter the purchase price, and check the exemptions that apply to you. Please notice that the Tax Estimator is based on the average millage rate of all municipalities in Broward County and senior exemptions may not be included. Your actual tax may be higher or lower.
