2026 Property Tax Due Date and Payment Information
Three!!! Important Items for 2026 Tax Payments
1. The town voted for a due date that is a few days earlier than some other years, taxes are due in the Town office or with a postmark on or before Thursday, October 8, 2026.
2. For you last minute payors…………the Postal Service does not necessarily postmark your envelope on the day they receive it. They are now shipping mail around New England to various service centers where it is postmarked, perhaps a day or two after your deposit. It is your responsibility to secure a postmark that is on or before the due date.
3. The Town Office address has changed! (Same location, just a different number) The new address is: 894 VT Route 113, Suite 100, West Fairlee, VT 05083
Tax payments received after 5:00 PM on Thursday, October 8, 2026, or with a later postmark are subject to a penalty of 8% and interest charges.
Payments delivered by USPS or carrier service such as Fed Ex will be considered timely if postmarked or carrier receipted on or before October 8, 2026.
The mailing address for tax payments is: Treasurer, Town of West Fairlee

You can also pay your tax bill at the town office.
Hours for the treasurer are Wednesday and Thursday 1:00 PM to 4:00PM. There is also a secure lockbox by the door of the Town Office where tax payments can be deposited at any time.
