Dare County is making it easier for residents and non-residents to make payments to its departments. Payments by Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express and debit cards are now being accepted by the Tax Department for Dare County real estate taxes, personal property taxes and vehicle taxes in person or by one of our automated payment systems.

Our automated payment systems include on-line payments or our IVR telephone system which can be reached by calling toll-free 1.888.272.9829. The jurisdiction code for Dare County is 3955. A convenience fee of 2.75% of the payment amount applies to both systems.

Payments via credit or debit card may still be made in person at the Dare County Tax office with no fees.

Prepared Foods & Beverage taxes and Occupancy taxes must be paid by cash or check.
