Property Taxes

Property taxes help fund important services and programs in the Township of Langley. Your tax amount is based on your property assessment and the Township’s annual budget requirements.

Property tax statement

• Mailed or emailed to property owners by the end of May annually.
• If you have not received your property tax statement by mid-June, email the Revenue and Tax Collections Department at tax@tol.ca to request a copy. You can also sign up for a MyTownship account to view it online and receive future statements by email.
  
• New property owners: confirm with your notary or lawyer who is to pay the property taxes by the due date to avoid the penalties.
• All property owners are responsible to ensure payment of property taxes are paid by the due date, even if a property tax statement is not received.
• Property tax amounts cannot be appealed.

How to pay

• The easiest way to pay is online through your bank. You can also pay in person at your financial institution, by mail, or at the Civic Facility (20338 – 65 Avenue) Customer Service counter or 24-hour drop boxes. Find details about payment options on the How to Pay page.

Understanding your property taxes

Your property tax notice includes general Township taxes, plus levies for roads, drainage, solid waste, capital projects, and taxes collected for other authorities.

Changes in property value do not impact the total tax levy. The Township adjusts the tax rate to offset assessment increases, ensuring only the necessary funds are collected.
