PAYMENT OPTIONS

We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover for all payments received by the Treasurer's Office. There is a fee to pay by credit card. The same credit card fee applies for in office payments.

Payments made by E-Check (electronic check) will be posted once the payment has settled with the County's bank. This can take up to 5-6 business days. Once the payment has settled, it will be processed as of the date you initiated the payment. E-CHECK PAYMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE BY YOUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING THAT YOUR PAYMENT IS REFLECTED ON YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.

Please Note: The Treasurer's Office does not accept checks for past due personal property tax payments once we have reported an account to the Department of Motor Vehicles' (DMV) vehicle registration withholding program. If this applies, please pay your past due balance by cash, money order, certified check, or credit card.

ALL FEES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

Notice Regarding DOXO Payments

The Gloucester County Treasurer’s Office has been made aware that an online bill payment company, DOXO, presents payment information in such a way that it may appear you are accessing an official payment portal website for Gloucester County.  Please be aware that the Gloucester County Treasurer’s Office is not affiliated with DOXO, nor have we authorized them to accept payments on behalf of Gloucester County.  In addition, much of the information provided for Gloucester County on their website is not accurate or is only partially so.

Please use one of the payment methods listed on this website under “Payment Options” or listed on the back of your bill.  If you have questions, please contact our office at 804-693-2141 or treasurer@gloucesterva.info.

Online Payments

All major credit cards are accepted online. A 2.5% fee applies (same fees apply in-office). Payments by e-check are free of charge. Online/credit card payments are not available for Civil Process through the Gloucester County Sheriff's Office.

In order to process your animal license, we MUST have your application and any associated information within 24 hours of receiving your payment. If we do not receive your application within that timeframe, your payment will be refunded.

If you are paying in order to avoid disconnection of your Utilities service, you must pay by credit card (2.5% fee applies).

Mail Payments

We strongly recommend having your payment envelope “hand cancelled” at the Post Office if you are mailing your tax payment. State law requires mailed-in tax payments to bear a US postmark on or before the due date. The only way to be certain your envelope is postmarked timely is to have it hand cancelled.

Please use the envelope provided to mail your check or money order and payment stub to our office. Our mailing address is:
