The Township of Wall, by passage of a yearly Resolution, allows a grace period before charging a penalty for late payment of taxes.  Delinquent interest is charged after the 10th day of the month that taxes are due.  The State of New Jersey does not allow the Tax Collector to accept postmarks; therefore all payments must be received in the tax office on or before the 10th.  If the 10th falls on a weekend or legal holiday, the taxpayer has until the next business day to make a payment.
 

DELINQUENT INTEREST CHARGED ON TAXES


By law, the Township of Wall has adopted by Resolution an interest rate of 8% per annum on the first $1,500.00 of delinquency and 18% per annum on any amount in excess of $1,500.00.  The Tax Collector is also authorized to charge a taxpayer having a tax and sewer delinquency in excess of $10,000.00, at the end of the calendar year, a Year-End-Penalty of 6%.  N.J.S.A. 54:4-67
