Tarrant County Tax Assessor-Collector, Wendy Burgess, announces that “All Tarrant County Tax Office locations will suspend direct customer transactions beginning Thursday, March 19, 2020 for the safety of our employees and the community,” Burgess said.

“The Tax Office is not closed. Employees will continue to provide services to those who usually visit a Tax Office location by accepting transactions by drop box, phone or mail. Customers are also encouraged to use the Tax Office website to conduct business.”

Citizens may make payments or renew auto registration in person by using a Tax Office drop box located at any Tarrant County Tax Office location available for use between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday-Friday or a Tarrant County Credit Union drop box anytime at the following locations:

• 645 Grapevine Highway, Hurst - on the northwest side of the Sub-Courthouse
• 6713 Telephone Road, Lake Worth - on the front side of the Sub-Courthouse

Only checks, money orders or cashier’s checks will be accepted. Please make sure items are clearly marked “Tax Office”. Receipts will be mailed within 10-14 days.

Property owners may make payments by calling 817-884-1110. Have your account number ready or Press 0 to speak to an agent if you do not have your account number, or if you are making a partial payment of the total due.
