## Payment Methods
The Nation Municipality offers several ways to pay your property tax bill. Choose the payment method that works best for you.
Pre-Authorized Payments
Online Payments
In-Person Payments
Payments by Mail
---
### **Pre-Authorized Payments**
**Make paying your property taxes easier with automatic payments.** Pre-authorized payments are withdrawn directly from your bank account, helping you stay on schedule without having to remember each payment due date.
Before enrolling in a pre-authorized payment plan, your property tax account must be paid in full and have no outstanding balance.
###
**12 monthly payments | 25th day of each month**
Under the budget plan, payments are withdrawn monthly to spread property tax payments throughout the year. From January to July, your monthly payments are based on the previous year's property taxes. Once the current year's taxes are finalized, your monthly payment amount is adjusted to reflect the current year's taxes, and the remaining balance is divided into five monthly payments from August to December.
###
**4 payments per year | March - May - August - October**
The full amount of each property tax instalment is automatically withdrawn from your bank account on the due date indicated on your property tax bill.
