This page helps users handle a property tax need in Madison County, Alabama by explaining how to search tax records, review balances, and contact the proper office when an amount is unclear.

The main public path is the Madison County Treasurer’s Office tax list, which lets users search by parcel number, owner name, or property address.

County Treasurer tax list

Use the search the County Treasurer tax list page to look up property tax entries. The page states that online tax information is not for official use, so contact the Treasurer’s Office if the balance or parcel match is uncertain.

Have one of these details ready before searching:

  • Property or parcel number, if known
  • Owner name, such as the property owner’s last name
  • Property address, with city if helpful

Start broad if you are not finding the right parcel. Entering too much information may narrow the results too much.

  • Open the County Treasurer tax list.
  • Enter a parcel number, owner name, or property address.
  • Review matching records for the parcel number, owner name, tax year, and property address.
  • Use the Treasurer’s Office as the next step if a split or combined property may affect the bill.

Tip: If a property was split or combined in the last 2 years, search by last name to find all related bills before paying.

Tax charges and balances

The Treasurer also provides a tax list with charges for reviewing installment amounts and balances. The listing includes fields such as parcel number, tax ID, map number, deeded owner, tax year, property address, spring payment, fall payment, and balance.

Use review tax information with charges when you need to compare a parcel record with billed amounts. The listed tax year shown is 2025 payable 2026.

Online payments and due-date status

The Treasurer’s online payment page states that online payments are not available at this time. It also states that the tax due date was May 11, 2026, and that unpaid tax has accrued a state-issued penalty.

For the amount due, call the Treasurer’s Office before paying. The page says payment can still be made in person or through the mail while online services are unavailable.

Property tax calculator and tax rates

The Treasurer’s property tax calculator can help estimate property taxes using tax year, tax district, property type, assessments, deductions, credits, and exemptions. It is an estimate tool, not a substitute for the Treasurer’s balance information.

The tax rates page lists the 2025 payable 2026 rates by district, with county, township, city or town, school, library, special, and total rate columns. Use it when you need to understand which district rate applies to a parcel.

Mortgage company processing

Mortgage companies use an electronic escrow payment process with the Treasurer’s Office. About 6–8 weeks before payments are due, the office sends an add-delete file so companies can verify serviced parcels. About 3–5 weeks before the installment due date, another file is sent with payment details.

For mortgage company questions, the Treasurer’s guidance points users to the Chief Deputy Treasurer listed in the staff directory.

The Treasurer’s Office handles payments, balance due questions, mobile home transfer permits, and questions about past taxes. Some property tax issues are handled by other county offices.

  • For property tax exemptions and deductions, use the Auditor’s Office.
  • For redemption after a tax sale or commissioner’s sale, use the Auditor’s Office.
  • For deed transfers, property ownership, or deed information, use the Recorder’s Office.
  • For assessment values and appeals, use the Assessor’s Office.
  • For child support payments, use the Clerk’s Office.
