Property Tax Certificates

• Online Tax Certificate - $25.00 per property tax account
• Staff Assisted Tax Certificate - $40.00 per property tax account

Online tax certificates will require a Virtual City Hall account to be set up initially.  Contact the Tax department to set up your account today.  After the account is set up you will be able to log in with a username and password to request tax certificates.  Once requested, the tax certificate will be generated immediately upon payment with credit card.

Staff assisted tax certificates are requested by email, fax or mail, identifying the specific property and providing instructions as to how you wish to have the tax certificate returned to you.  These can be paid by credit card over the phone, in person at City Hall or by cheque.  The tax certificate will be issued within 2 business days of payment being received.

NOTE: Online tax certificates requested within 5 business days of the Penalty Date may not yet have the penalties posted. You may choose to wait until 5 business days after the Penalty Date or contact the Tax Department to confirm that penalties are posted before requesting the tax certificate.

Tax searches may also be obtained free of charge on Virtual City Hall without a login by visiting our Property Tax Inquiries page.

• Roll Number
