We are pleased to announce the implementation of the eCheck payment system for property owners who want to pay real property taxes online.

• Convenient and easy-to-use: No more need to write checks or pay postage. You can make your tax payments 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
• Free: We do not charge you to use the online payment system.
• Reliable: When you pay, you will get a reference number as proof of your payment.

All payments made before 5 pm EST are effective the same day they are authorized. Payments may not be scheduled for a later date.

To use the MyTax.DC.gov online payment system:

1. Search MyTax.DC.gov and go to "Make a Real Property Payment."
2. Enter your square and lot or your address.
3. Click on your property to retrieve your account information.
