The City of Peterborough has launched a new online property tax portal, offering property owners round-the-clock access to their account information through computers or mobile devices.
Mayor Jeff Leal praised the portal, stating, “The new online portal for property tax information is an important enhancement to the City’s customer service. Checking your information and getting your tax bills electronically isn’t just convenient—going paperless is also good for the environment.”
The portal enables users to view current and past tax bills, check their property tax balance and payment history, print account statements, sign up for electronic billing, enroll in a pre-authorized payment plan, and update their mailing address.
To register for the portal, property owners need to visit peterborough.ca/MyTaxPortal and complete a secure, two-factor authentication process using the access code from your 2023 or later property tax bill, found at the top right corner of the Interim or Final Tax Bill.
In-person services are still available at the Tax Office in City Hall at 500 George St. N., and by phone at 705-742-7777 (ext. 1865#) during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.
