When is my personal property tax payment due?
Taxes on all personal property located in Caroline County on January 1 will be due in equal semi-annual payments on June 5 and December 5 as long as there are no changes.

Corrections to the original assessments (including prorated property) are taxed as supplemental tax bills. These are billed at various times during the year and are due 30 days after the billing.
