About Tax Statements:
When are tax statements sent?
All current year tax statements are mailed on July 15 each tax year.
Why is a previously owned vehicle appearing on my current tax statement?
All taxes are assessed a year behind. For example, 2023 taxes would include personal property you owned on July 1, 2022. If your statement is incorrect, please call the Logan County Assessor’s Office 304-792-8520.
Where is my account number located on my tax statement?
The account number is located in the top right-hand corner in small writing ACCOUNT NO.
I didn’t receive my tax statement. How can I find out how much I owe?
Either call our office at 304-792-8680 or you may look your taxes up online at wvpropertytaxes.com or clicking on the Tax Inquiry link on this website.
Do I still owe Taxes if I DO NOT receive a tax statement?
Yes, if you owned real or personal property on July 1 of the previous tax year, you are still required to pay real estate and personal property taxes in the current tax year. The West Virginia legislature has included such a duty in WV Code 11A-1-8.

Also, you can ask for a next year Assessment Form from the County Assessors office 304-792-8520.
Where can I find what my taxes are applied to?
There will be a PROPERTY DESCRIPTION on the left top of your mailed tax statement. On the online statement, right side in the middle of page.
Will I be notified that my taxes are delinquent if I forget to pay?

In September the Tax Office mails by certified mail a notice to the taxpayer. You will receive a delinquent notice on personal propery in May.
What do I need in order to receive my DMV sticker at the courthouse on Tuesdays?
You will need the TWO-PART renewal registration card, insurance card, and your tax receipt.
