The Town of Hempstead Receiver of Taxes Credit Card and Electronic Check Payment Systems

Tax bills are issued twice a year, once in January for the General Tax Bill, and once in October for the School Tax Bill. You can view the 2024-2025 payment schedule on the graphic to the right:

Although school taxes are collected by the Town's Receiver of Taxes, payments are forwarded to your local school district and, if applicable, a local library district. Hempstead Town plays no role in setting the school tax rate and does not benefit from these payments. Your local board of education, which is independently elected, and over which the Town has no control, establishes your school budget. For more information about your school taxes, contact your local school district.

Payment by credit card will incur a service fee of 2.3% with a minimum of $1.50 for all cards. Payment by electronic check will incur a service fee of $1.50. The fee for personal Visa Debit transactions is $3.95. These fees are not paid to the Town of Hempstead, they are paid to eGov Strategies for processing the transaction. The Town of Hempstead does not profit from this service fee.

Please note: Only the current, open tax year can be paid. Once a tax levy is closed, payments should be made to the Nassau County Treasurer. Please contact the Nassau County Treasurer's Office to pay past taxes and open tax liens.

To search for your current tax bill and make an online payment, please select bill type:

Search By General Tax Bill Number

If you have your current year's tax bill number available, please enter it in the Tax Bill Number field below.

You may search for your School Tax Bill using either the current year's tax bill number, or your parcel ID (school district, section, block and lot numbers). If you don't know your parcel ID, you may look it up by your property address by visiting Nassau County's Land Records Viewer. Amending a prior year's Bill # or entering a wrong Bill # may return a property that is not yours. Taxpayers must verify the intended payment is for the correct property address before completing the transaction.
