Property tax notices for 2025 went out in the mail to Thurston County taxpayers Monday, Feb. 10. Property tax amounts can now be viewed and paid through the Thurston County treasurer’s website at https://www.thurstoncountywa.gov/departments/treasurer.
Thurston County’s 2025 total property taxes assessed for all jurisdictions is $628,981,740.
Payment can be made by electronic check on the treasurer’s website with no additional fee. Payment by debit card has an additional 1% transaction fee (minimum $2) or pay by any major credit card, which has an additional 2.3% transaction fee (minimum $2). Thurston County receives none of the transaction fee.
Taxpayers can make property tax payments online, by mail, over the phone or at the parking lot drop box, located outside the Atrium office location of 3000 Pacific Ave. SE, Olympia.
Payments may also be made in person, but the same transaction fees apply as described above for payments made in person or over the phone.
Office hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Payments made by mail must be postmarked by the due date. As required by Washington state law, late fees will be charged for those who do not have their payments in on time.
The treasurer’s office would like to remind property owners that they can sign up to receive property tax bills electronically. This is an opt-in service that requires the taxpayer to create an account online. This account also has the option to sign up for automatic payments, so taxpayers never have to worry about missing a payment. Visit https://www.thurstoncountywa.gov/departments/treasure for more information. Taxpayers who wish to continue receiving a paper bill in the mail do not need to do anything.
