Renewing Business Tax Receipt

Business Tax Receipts are annually renewed on or before September 30^th and are valid for the following fiscal year beginning on October 1st.

Renewal notices are sent out in June of each year. It is the responsibility of the business owner to renew the business tax prior to September 30^th.  Failure to renew a business tax receipt will not exempt a business owner from late payment penalties. As a courtesy, a renewal reminder will be emailed in June. However, if the renewal notice is not received, it is the responsibility of the business owner to ensure that their business tax receipt is renewed prior to September 30th of each year. Failure to receive a renewal reminder notice will not exempt business owners from paying any penalties for late payment.
