You may view and print the current bills from this site. If prior year taxes show unpaid, you can check with the Columbia County Treasurer's office to verify payments on delinquent taxes. Payments made to Columbia County for back taxes will not appear on this website.
You may pay your taxes (full payment only) online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by using your Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express credit card ($2 minimum or 2.55% of total- whichever is greater -convenience fee will apply), Debit cards (1.95% fee will apply) or by Electronic Check (up to $50,000 payment amount $2.00 flat fee w/verification will apply). Convenience and flat fees are collected by the web service provider, not by the Town of Claverack, and will be the responsibility of the taxpayer.
Online tax payments for the Town and County bill will not be accepted after May 31st of each year.
