LEE COUNTY TAX ROLL OPEN FOR 2025 COLLECTION

Pumpkin spice, shorter days, and property taxes — some things are just signs of the season.

Today, more than 541,000 tax bills are being mailed to property and business owners in Lee County. Property owners can also access their bills electronically at LeeTC.com.

These bills reflect the value of the property as of January 1, 2025, when Florida law required them to be assessed.

To make paying property taxes easier and more convenient, the Tax Collector’s Office has added more options this year:

• Two new 24/7 secure drop boxes have been installed at our Cape Coral and Lehigh Acres offices, joining the existing ones in Downtown Fort Myers and South Fort Myers. Customers can drop off payments anytime, allow five business days for processing, and print a receipt from our online portal.
• Self-service kiosks at all six service centers allow customers to pay by credit card or e-check and print a receipt instantly.

In addition to these options, tax payments can still be made online at LeeTC.com/pay-online, by mail, or over the phone.

“Our mission is to deliver 5-star service to our customers,” said Noelle Branning, Lee County Tax Collector. “We continue to invest in secure technology and flexible options that save people time and make paying property taxes simple and stress-free.”

Tax payments are due by March 31, 2026, but customers can take advantage of early payment discounts: 4% in November, 3% in December, 2% in January, and 1% in February.

Once received, all funds are distributed to Lee County’s Levying Authorities to support essential services like education, fire rescue, and law enforcement, along with vital infrastructure including roads, parks, and utilities.
