FY26 Tax Payment Information

The Town of Sharon offers several options for making tax payments, and we hope one will work well for you.

Property taxes are paid in two installments in the Town of Sharon.

For the fiscal year beginning July 1st, 2025 and ending June 30th, 2026, the first payment of real and property taxes is due by 6:00 PM on or before Wednesday, September 17, 2025.

The second payment is due by 6:00PM on or before Wednesday, February 11, 2026.

A Few Special Notes:

  • All Payments Should Include Your Parcel ID# (not the SPAN #).
  • Please check your bill to make sure you have the correct status of homestead vs. non-homestead and if you received your expected State Payment credit per the letter you received from the VT Dept of Taxes.
  • FY2025 tax payments not made by Feb. 12, 2025 at 6pm will be subject to a 2% late fee (penalty) and must be paid by Feb. 19, 2025 to avoid an additional 6% late fee (penalty) added for a total of an 8% late fee (penalty).
  • Taxes paid late for the Sept. 13, 2023 and the Feb. 14, 2024 due dates will be charged 1% interest per month until paid in full.

For tax payment information, please call Lucy Pierpont, Finance Manager, at 802-763-8268 ext. 8 or Deb Jones, Treasurer, at ext.3.

Alternatively, you may email Lucy at financemgr@sharonvt.net or Deb at treasurer@sharonvt.net.

Please be aware that you will only receive one bill in mid-August with payment stubs for both the September and February payments and that your tax bill is mailed to your address, not to your mortgage lender’s address.
