Statewide schedule — read this before you rely on it
All 100 counties follow the September 1 due date and January 6 delinquency date set by G.S. 105-360; only prepayment discount programs vary. Most counties in this state follow these dates.
Taxes unpaid on January 6 are delinquent and accrue 2% interest for January 6 through February 1 and three-quarters of one percent a month after that until paid.
Counties adopt budgets and set levies by July 1 and mail tax receipts in July and August, ahead of the September 1 due date.
