Important Notice Regarding Online Property Tax Payments
The Online Property Tax Service allows the public easy access to pay, print, and view Madera County property tax bills. You must have your 12-digit Assessment Number or the 12-digit Fee Parcel Number to pay your taxes online. If you search by "Assessment Number", only that assessment will appear. If you wish to view ALL tax bills associated with a parcel (i.e. supplemental and unsecured), searching by "Fee Parcel" will show all bills. If you do not have your fee parcel or assessment number available, you may also search by street address.
Before proceeding, please be aware that The County of Madera contracts with a third-party vendor to accept credit/debit card and e-check payments on our behalf over the Internet or through our Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. A convenience fee charged by our third-party vendor applies. You must review and accept all fees before authorizing payment.
