Office of the Collector of Revenue

Collector of Revenue Gregory F.X. Daly

 

Tens of thousands of tax bills were mailed to property owners in the City of St. Louis in early November. The deadline for paying your real estate and personal property tax bills is December 31st. As City employees we are obligated to pay our taxes in full and on time, or suffer disciplinary action by the Department of Personnel.

Department of Personnel Administrative Regulation No. 137 states that "City employees, because of the public nature of their employment are held to high standards of compliance with these tax laws by the general public. These standards of compliance are perfectly proper and shall be the standards against which City employees are measured. Employees who don't pay (by Dec. 31st) are subject to disciplinary action."

We have made more payment options available to continually improve customer service. We hope you will take advantage of them and pay your tax bills by December 31st.

There are many ways you can make your personal property and real-estate payments. You can

• send us a check via U.S. mail;
• you can pay online at www.stlouiscollector.com ; 
• you can pay by phone by calling 1-800-2PAY-TAX as noted on your bill;
• and through December 31st you can pay at five area bank locations identified on the back of your statement.
• As always, you can pay in person in Room 109 of City Hall with cash, check, debit card or credit card from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. A third party convenience fee applies to all debit and credit card transactions with our office.

My staff in the office and at the neighborhood banks is thoroughly prepared for a robust property tax season. We look forward to serving you and all the taxpayers of the City of St. Louis.
