Arkansas property owners have until Sunday, Oct. 15, to pay their property taxes to avoid a 10% late penalty, according to the state’s online Property Tax Center. The deadline applies statewide, and payments can be made online, by mail, or in person at county courthouses.

Online payment is available in most of Arkansas’s 75 counties, and property owners can access this feature through the Arkansas.gov Property Tax Center. Taxes are based on the assessed value of the property, which is determined by the county assessor. Homeowners may be eligible for a homestead property tax credit, which can reduce the tax owed on a primary residence.

Failure to meet the deadline may result in additional penalties and interest charges. In some cases, properties with unpaid taxes may be sold at a tax sale to recover the amount due, according to state resources.

The state also offers a free reminder service called Gov2Go. This program notifies property owners when it is time to assess property, pay taxes, and renew vehicle tags.
