The Property Tax Division sets the standards and procedures for equalization of property values in the counties and ensures property is taxed uniformly throughout the state. Our purpose is to supervise and control the valuation, equalization, assessment of property, and collection of all ad valorem taxes. The Property Tax Division also advises and assisting county elected officials and their personnel, county commissioners, members of the boards of equalization, and other officials charged with mapping and appraisal duties, relating to laws, regulations, standards, and procedures governing property tax administration. Our vision is to assure the citizens of Alabama that compliance with the property tax laws, rules, and regulations is maintained in an efficient and effective manner.

All taxable real and personal property, with the exception of public utility property, is assessed on the local level at the county courthouse with the county assessing official. The lien date for taxes is October 1 and taxes are due the following  October 1.
