Property tax payments are due November 15, 2026. Oregon state law establishes the property tax payment deadlines and requires interest to be charged on properties with delinquent tax amounts. Multnomah County does not have the authority to waive interest charges as a result of late property tax payments, and the Oregon State Legislature has not, at this time, extended the property tax deadline. Note: If the 15th falls on the weekend, payment is due the next business day.
Multnomah County recommends making your property tax payment online, with one of our payment drop boxes, via your bank or credit union, or through the mail.
If you must make an in-person tax payment, DART offices will be open October 16th through November 15th to accept payments on a limited basis. No other services will be provided.

Your mortgage company may be responsible for making your tax payment. If your property tax bill is yellow, it means a mortgage company or senior/disabled citizen deferral program has requested tax information to pay your tax bill. Check with your mortgage company or the senior/disabled citizen deferral program if you have questions.
