Secured Property Tax First Installment Deadline is Monday, December 11 “Use eCheck: Fast, Safe, Secure”

SANTA ANA, Calif. – Orange County Treasurer Shari Freidenrich reminds property owners that the first installment deadline to timely pay secured property taxes for fiscal year 2023/24 is Monday, December 11. “With the extension in the payment deadline to December 11 due to the 10th falling on a Sunday, I encourage property owners to use our secure online eCheck payment option, which is Fast, Safe and Secure” says Treasurer Shari. L. Freidenrich. “There is no cost for eCheck, you will receive same day credit, receive an emailed receipt and can print it for your records. On December 7, we had over 10,000 taxpayers pay using eCheck online, and their accounts received credit for their payment on December 7.

Mailed payments received after December 11 that do not have a United States Postal Service (USPS) postmark of December 11 or earlier will be charged a 10% delinquent penalty. Paying at octreasurer.com/octaxbill is Fast, Safe and Secure. Payments processed on the secure website prior to midnight on December 11 will be timely. While there is no charge for eCheck, taxpayers who pay with a credit or debit card will be assessed a 2.29 percent service charge.
