Tax listing season officially began at the start of January for Lincolnton residents. According to an announcement published by the Lincoln County website, the annual process for 2026 began on January 1 and will run until January 31, providing a one-month window for locals to declare their personal property. Property owners who have previously filed should have received a listing form by mail. New owners, or those who did not receive a form, are still able to submit their listing.
Property owners can obtain a listing form by calling the Tax Department, visiting in person, or accessing the department’s online Listing page. Properties required to be listed each year include aircraft, watercraft, farm equipment, computer hardware, and other valuable movable items. This also covers manufactured homes not considered real estate and vehicles without current registration or with multi-year or IRP plates.
For those seeking in-person assistance, the Lincolnton Tax Office at 100 East Main Street in downtown is open and available to help residents complete their annual property listings.
