Welcome to the Bureau of Treasury and Tax Collection
The Bureau of Treasury and Tax Collection is responsible for collecting all revenues owed to the City of Augusta.
This includes property taxes, excise taxes, and registration fees for automobiles, boats, all-terrain vehicles, and snowmobiles. We now offer one-stop registration for motor vehicles, including the issuance of license plates, directly at our office. Real property taxes are due biannually, in September and March.
For your convenience, online transactions are available and are processed through a third-party payment system, Maine Payport, which includes a 2.5% service charge on all transactions. When selecting online services, you will be redirected to an external website. We hope you find this online payment option convenient.
The Bureau of Treasury and Tax Collection operates under the Department of Finance and Administration and is overseen by Director Ingrid Nivison. The Department of Finance is organized into smaller, specialized bureaus to enhance our effectiveness. This structure allows us to focus on different areas with the required expertise.
We recommend reviewing the requirements before completing and submitting forms. This will save you time and effort upon your visit to City Hall.

Important Program Information
Participants will receive a sheet of tax coupons accompanied by an FAQ sheet. Mail the tax coupon(s) with your monthly payment to ensure the payment is applied to the correct account. Include an address and phone number with each payment. Verify your last payment amount by calling (207) 626-2310 before mailing your final payment due by May 15th to avoid interest and a potential tax lien.
Failure to make regular monthly payments (2 months or more) will result in being removed from the program and interest will be charged. You may also be denied enrollment to future tax clubs.
