2021 ST. BERNARD PROPERTY TAX NOTICES MAILED; PAYMENTS DUE BY DEC. 31

The St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office, in accordance with Louisiana law, has mailed the 2021 property tax notices via U.S. mail to parish property owners. Taxes must be paid by Dec. 31 before becoming delinquent.

Tax bills can be paid at the Sheriff’s Civil Tax Office located on the second floor of the Sheriff’s Annex, at 2 Courthouse Square in Chalmette. The Annex – which is raised above ground – faces Pakenham Drive and is the second of two buildings directly behind the Courthouse. Regular business hours are Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m.

The Civil Tax Office, where such bills are paid, will be closed Dec. 24 and Dec. 27 for the Christmas holiday, and Dec. 31 for the New Year’s holiday.

There is a drop box at the front entrance to the building for after-hours use. Tax bills can also be paid online on the Sheriff’s Office website at www.sbso.org. Go to the left side of the front page to a tan-colored box near the top which says Pay Property Taxes.

Tax notices were mailed to the address on file as provided to the St. Bernard Parish Tax Assessor’s Office.

If you receive a tax notice for a property you no longer own, or if you have moved and haven’t received your 2021 tax bill, please notify the Sheriff’s Civil Tax Office at (504) 271-2504.

You must call and give your new mailing address so the tax bill can be sent to the proper address, and you should also call or visit the St. Bernard Tax Assessor’s office to make a permanent address change.

The Tax Assessor’s office is located at 2118 Jackson Blvd., directly behind the Parish Courthouse in Chalmette. The Tax Assessor’s number is (504) 279-6379.

The St. Bernard Sheriff’s Office only maintains the address change for the current mailing. The Assessor’s Office keeps the permanent address.
