Property Taxes After receiving your property, the National Land Agency will send you a notice, advising you of your property’s unique valuation number. Use this number when paying your property tax or to find out how much to pay. Property tax is due April 1 every year. You are responsible for paying your property tax from the date you gain possession of your unit or lot. Property taxes are not included in your mortgage payment. Therefore, you are advised to pay it directly to Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ). Each year prior to April 1, TAJ will send you a Property Tax Notice in the mail. If you do not get a notice, visit www.jamaicatax.gov.jm or your nearest tax office to find out how much you should pay. Remember, to have your valuation number on hand when trying to get this information.
