If the first half is not paid on or before the due date on Mobile Homes, Manufactured Homes, Personal Property,  and Utility Personal Property the entire tax becomes due and payable. {Idaho Code 63-904(2)}

LATE CHARGE AND INTEREST:

Please remember if payments are received after the DEADLINE dates, a late charge and interest will be applied. Late charge is 2% of the unpaid balance and is applied on December 21.  Interest is accrued beginning January 1, and the rate as directed by State Code is 1% per month.

If less than half is received by December 20, interest will be applied to the unpaid balance beginning January 1. If the full tax is not paid by June 20, interest on the unpaid tax will accrue from January 1. Please have payments on time to avoid this late charge and interest.
