Property Tax Bills
Property tax bills are mailed out ONCE a year, usually in mid-July and cover four quarterly payments. The bill mailed in July includes the 3rd and 4th quarters of the current year and the preliminary 1st and 2nd quarters of the next year. Payments are due quarterly: February 1st, May 1st, August 1st and November 1st with a 10-day grace period, the maximum allowed by State Law. If the 10th falls on a weekend or a Borough holiday, the grace period is extended to the Borough’s next business day.
If the tax office has a mortgage company on your account, an original bill will be forwarded to the mortgage company and a copy marked “NOT A BILL – FOR ADVICE ONLY” will be sent to the taxpayer.
If you receive a tax bill that states “NOT A BILL – FOR ADVICE ONLY”, and you pay your own taxes, please use the advice only bill to make payment and notify the tax office to remove the mortgage company from your account.
If you have changed mortgage companies, please make sure the tax office is notified, especially if you need a duplicate bill.
Failure to Receive a Tax Bill – NJSA 54:4-64 states that failure to receive a bill does not invalidate the tax due. It is the property owner’s responsibility to ascertain from the Tax Collector the amount of taxes due. If you have recently purchased the property or lost your tax bill, please call the Tax Collector’s Office to obtain the amount of taxes due or to request a copy of your tax bill.

Payments
The Borough of Seaside Park has approved an interest rate of 8% per annum on the first $1,500 of delinquency; 18% on balances in excess of $1,500. The 18% interest rate remains in place until taxes are brought current. Interest is charged from the 1st of the month that payment is due, or the date of last payment. If the total balance (tax and interest) exceeds $10,000 on December 31st, a 6% penalty shall be added to the amount due.
NJ Statutes do not permit the waiver or cancellation of any interest charge.
Payments may be made by check, cash, money orders, or online.
- Checks and money orders are to be made payable to the “Borough of Seaside Park”.
- Postmarks and postdated checks are not accepted.
- Fees are charged by the service provider and are neither paid to nor shared with the Borough of Seaside Park when utilizing our Online Payment Site.
Note: if you are using your bank’s “online bill pay”, the bank will mail a physical check to the Borough. Please allow ample delivery time to avoid interest charges as an online payment through your bank’s portal does not necessarily mean a prompt payment should the physical check arrive late.
