Paulding County property owners are reminded that it is time to file the Real Property Tax Return. The Tax Assessor’s Office requests that residents submit their returns by April 1, in accordance with Georgia law. Property owners who have experienced a change in ownership, made improvements or alterations, or need to update their address should report these changes at this time.
According to a recent notice from Paulding County, property owners who completed remodeling, constructed new structures, or demolished existing ones in 2025 are required to report these changes. Residents are also encouraged to submit applications for Homestead Exemption, Preferential Agriculture Assessment, Conservation Use, and the Georgia Forest Land Protection Act.
In addition to real estate, personal property must also be reported. This includes business inventories, boats, and aircraft. Businesses should also remember to submit the Freeport Exemption form, which may provide a 100% local tax exemption.
For additional assistance or questions, the Tax Assessor’s Office can be reached by phone at 770-443-7606 or online. Property owners are reminded that late filings may result in penalties, so it is important to submit returns by the deadline.
