Real property taxes due Aug. 20
LĪHU‘E – County officials would like to remind Kaua‘i property owners that the first
installment of real property taxes for the 2017-2018 tax year are due on August 20.
However, because Aug. 20 falls on a Sunday, tax payers will be able to pay their Real
Property Tax on Monday, August 21, without incurring any penalty.
As stated in the Kaua‘i County Code Section Sec. 5A-1.18, when the due date for any
remittance or document required by any ordinance imposing a tax falls on a Saturday, Sunday
or legal Holiday, the remittance or document shall not be due until the next succeeding day
which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal Holiday (Ord. No. 394, July 1, 1981).
Payments can be made online at www.kauai.gov/paypropertytax, by mail, in person or at
a drop box located outside the Kapule Building at the Līhu‘e Civic Center.
Please make checks payable to the Director of Finance.
Property tax bills were recently mailed to all owners on record or their respective
mortgage institutions for those with impound accounts.
Property owners who pay their real property taxes directly and have not yet received
their property tax bills should inquire at the Real Property Tax Collection office at the Līhu‘e
Civic Center, Kapule Building, 4444 Rice Street, Suite 463, or call 241-4272.
Failure to pay real property taxes by the due date will result in a 10 percent penalty, as
well as 12 percent interest per year.
