The Sedgwick County Tax Department
is responsible for the collection of real estate and personal property taxes. Real estate is
defined as land and any permanent improvements to that land.
Personal property taxes include mobile homes, boats, trailers, jet skis,
vehicles with non-highway titles, etc.
Real estate tax statements are
mailed early in November of each year for that tax year. Taxpayers have the option of paying the full or half amount taxes by
December 20th. If only the first half is paid, a second half tax statement
will be sent in April and will be due by May 10th of the next year.
If a taxpayer fails to pay full or half
by December 20th, interest becomes due and payable on December 21st.
Delinquent real property taxes may still be paid by half plus any interest
due until May 10th. After May 10th the full amount plus interest
must be paid. All unpaid real estate taxes will be published three
times in August in the designated county paper. Real estate is
eligible for tax foreclosure if a tax becomes three years delinquent.

Sedgwick County Treasurers Office at (316) 660-9110.
For mailing address changes for Real Estate, call the Sedgwick County Clerk at (316)

Personal property tax statements are mailed early
in November of each year. Taxpayers have the option of paying the full
or half amount by December 20th. If they pay the first half amount
only, they will receive a second tax statement in April to pay by May 10, of
the following year.
If a taxpayer fails to pay full or half
by December 20, interest becomes due and payable on December 21st.
Personal property taxes not paid by at least half by December 20, must be
paid in full plus interest. Half payment is no longer an
option. Personal property taxes not paid by at least half become
Sheriff warrants on April 20. Personal property taxes with first half
paid but second half not paid by July 20, will also become Sheriff
warrants. On October 1, all unpaid personal property taxes will become
Court warrants and will be published as delinquent in the publication
designated by the County.
