Peachtree Corners residents your Gwinnett County property taxes and city taxes are due Monday, Oct. 15.
Residents should pay both county and city taxes to Gwinnett County. Taxpayers who prefer to pay in two installments may choose to make an earlier partial payment as long as the total due is paid by Oct. 15. There are several options for property tax payment:
- Pay online by check or credit card at www.GwinnettTaxCommissioner.com (Paying by check is free; convenience fees apply for credit card transactions.)
- Mail payments to P.O. Box 372, Lawrenceville, GA 30046
- Pay by check using drop boxes 24 hours a day at all Tax Commissioner offices
- Pay in person during business hours at all Tax Commissioner offices
For property owners with an escrow account, tax information will be made available to the mortgage company; however, it is ultimately the responsibility of the property owner to ensure taxes are paid by the due date.
If there are questions about who will pay the taxes, homeowners should contact their mortgage company directly, especially if their mortgage company has recently changed.
For more information, contact the office at tax@gwinnettcounty.com or 770.822.8800.

I think that paying a "convenience fee" to pay by credit card is a rip off. While there may be a charge from the card company, it is offset by the reduced administrative expense of having staff receive, reconcile and deposit checks.
