Authority to extend the due date and/or grace period for property taxes lies with the State of New Jersey. The State did not pass emergency legislation to extend the grace period and payment schedule to the County and School Boards. As you are aware, 83% of taxes collected are remitted to other taxing entities, including the school boards, the county, and the fire districts, and these payments are due on or about May 10, 2020. As such, please note that 2nd quarter property taxes are due as scheduled no later than May 11, 2020. Note that this includes a 10 day grace period – all interest penalties are calculated back to the due date of May 1, 2020.
Due to the current State of Emergency, all Municipal Offices will continue to be CLOSED to the public until further notice to protect residents and employees. The Tax Collector’s office is staffed during regular business hours and can be reached by phone [(732) 536-0200 Ext. 1804] or email [

- Check is signed
- The numeric amount matches the written amount
- Check has a current date; postdated checks cannot be accepted
- Include tax stubs for all properties that you are paying (If you do not have the stub, please include your block and lot number, tax account number or the property location)
