This answer has been viewed 2344 times and was last updated on 07/28/2020.

Cash, check, cashier's check, money order, debit card (subject to your bank's daily card limit), credit card or certified funds. A processing fee applies if you pay by debit card or credit card. For debit cards, the fee is $2.50. For credit cards, the fee is 2.5% with a minimum of $2.50. Our office does not retain any portion of this fee. Checks submitted in payment of any transaction must be in U.S. funds and must include full name, street address (no PO Box), home and work telephone number with area code, driver license number, and driver license state of issuance. Starter checks are not acceptable. Credit of payment is subject to check clearance. If your check is returned, it may be re-presented electronically. By submitting payment by check, you are authorizing service charges and processing fees, as permitted by Florida Statute 832, to be debited from the same account by paper draft or electronically, at the option of the tax collector.

All delinquent taxes must be paid in the form of cash, cashier's check, treasurer's check, money order, debit card, credit card or certified funds or credit card (if paying online only).
