Real estate tax bills are sent semi-annually and are payable within 30 days from the date of issue or the due date indicated on the bill. Late payments will be assessed interest and late charges in accordance with the Massachusetts General Law. Payments are considered made when received by the Collector. Payments made late will accrue interest. The interest will be computed on overdue payments back to the date of issue.
Payments must be received by the Collector’s office by 4:00pm on the due date (12:30pm on Friday).
Postmarks are not accepted as receipt dates.
The collector’s office will gladly accept payments made at Town Hall during business hours.
After hours, taxpayers may use the outside drop box .
If you use your bank’s “On-Line” payments service, please make sure the “check” is sent directly to: Town of Foxborough, 40 South Street, Foxborough, MA 02035. Please be sure to document the correct bill information in the memo field in order for the check to be processed correctly. It may take up to two weeks for our office to receive and post your payment.
When mailing in the enclosed envelope, please enclose the remittance portion of the bill to ensure proper credit.
If your taxes are being paid by a bank or mortgage company, please contact them to ensure that they have the correct tax information for your account. Remember, as the property owner you are responsible for the tax obligations.
Online tax payments are accepted for CURRENT real estate and personal property taxes.
PLEASE REMEMBER, Under state law, Chapter 60, Section 3, failure to receive a bill does not affect the validity of the tax or any interest or fines incurred due to late payment(s). It is the responsibility of the taxpayer to secure his/her tax bill when one is not received.
