PRESS RELEASE

The Yolo County Tax Collector’s Office reminds property owners in Yolo County that the second installment of 2025-26 Secured Property Taxes was due Sunday, February 1 and will become delinquent if not paid by Friday, April 10, 2026.

To avoid penalties, payments must be received by 5:00p.m. on Friday, April 10. After that time, a 10 percent penalty will be applied in accordance with California Revenue & Taxation code. If paying taxes by mail, envelopes must be postmarked by the U.S. Postal Service on or before April 10 to avoid penalties.

Property taxes may also be paid online or by phone using a credit or debit card (2.34% convenience fee applies) or by electronic check (no fee) at www.YoloCounty.gov (select the “Pay Property Tax” icon) or by calling (877) 590-0714.

To avoid penalties, electronic payments must be completed by 11:59 p.m. on April 10. Taxpayers are encouraged to submit payments several days in advance to allow for processing time, as transactions can take up to three business days to complete.

Please note that current law does not relieve property owners of payment responsibility or penalties for failure to receive a tax bill. Property owners who did not receive a tax bill should contact the Yolo County Tax Collector’s Office at (530) 666-8625 or email TaxInfo@YoloCounty.gov as soon as possible. For questions or additional information, taxpayers may:

• Visit: www.YoloCounty.gov (select “Pay Property Tax” icon)

Property taxes are a vital source of funding for local governments including the county, cities, school districts, local cemetery districts, community colleges, rural fire districts and others. More than half of property tax revenue supports local schools, while rural fire districts rely on property taxes for over 90 percent of their annual funding. The County receives about 9 percent total of property tax revenue, or about 9 cents of every dollar paid.
