Pay Bollinger County Property Taxes

The Bollinger County Collector handles all tax payments. The office is at 204 High Street, Suite 2, Marble Hill, MO 63764. Phone is (573) 238-1900. Taxes are due by December 31 each year. If you miss that date, penalties and interest start on January 1.

Missouri law does not prorate property taxes if you move mid-year. If you lived in Bollinger County on January 1, you owe the full year even if you moved out in February. The same goes for vehicles. If you owned a truck on January 1 but sold it in April, you still pay the tax on it for the whole year. A late personal property filing brings a penalty between $15 and $105 depending on the value of your property, as outlined in RSMo 137.280. You need a paid personal property tax receipt or waiver before you can get new license plates at the DMV. The postmark on a mailed payment must be December 31 or earlier to count as on time.

Note: The Bollinger County Collector does not keep online processing fees; those go to the payment vendor.

Bollinger County Tax Appeals

If your Bollinger County property assessment seems too high, start with the Board of Equalization. File your appeal with the county clerk before the third Monday in June. The board hears cases each summer. Bring sales data or an appraisal to support your claim.

If the board does not lower your value, take it to the Missouri State Tax Commission. The deadline is September 30 or 30 days after the board's ruling. The state commission holds formal hearings at no charge for residential appeals. Bollinger County residents who are 65 or older or 100% disabled can also claim the Missouri Property Tax Credit through the Missouri Department of Revenue. The max credit is $1,100 for homeowners.
