In Alabama, property taxes are due once a year on October 1 and become delinquent if not paid by December 31. To avoid penalties and interest, the full payment must be made or postmarked by that date. Key points include: October 1 – taxes are due; December 31 – last day to pay without penalty; January 1 – taxes become delinquent, and a 12% annual interest plus fees start accruing.
