Credit card (online only)
To pay taxes using your existing MasterCard, Visa or American Express, visit the Plastiq website. There is a fee to use this service for tax payments. The fee is independent of the Town of Oakville. Please check the Plastiq website for details. Please expect three to six business days for payment processing.
Pre-authorized tax payment plans
All tax bills (with the exception of supplementary and omitted bills) can be paid using one of the town’s pre-authorized payment plans.
Completing the Pre-Authorized Tax Payment Plan Application Form (PAP) (pdf) allows you to pay taxes in four, nine or 12 monthly installments.
To sign up, your property must be fully assessed for one year to include both the land and structure values. Please see the application form for all the program details.
Please contact pap@oakville.ca for assistance in joining the program.
To adjust the banking information used for the pre-authorized payment plan, please complete the Pre-authorized Tax Payment Plan Banking Information Change Request Form (pdf).
To cancel your pre-authorized payment plan, please complete the Pre-authorized Tax Payment Plan Cancellation Request Form (pdf).
Payment must be received on or prior to the due date to avoid penalty and interest. Late payment charges are set in accordance with current legislation and cannot be waived.
Interest is charged at 1.25 per cent monthly, applied on the first day of each month of default.
Filing an assessment appeal, a request for reconsideration, or failure to receive a property tax bill does not exempt you from paying taxes by the due date or from incurring late payment penalties.
