All property owners to receive tax bills by regular mail
Township of Severn has launched our new E-Services portal that will allow our community to access tax bills and water and sewer billings online in one secure account.
Service for our previous e-billing site (E-Commerce) has been discontinued.
To continue receiving your tax bill by email, please register for a new user account on our new E-Services portal.
How to register
You will find detailed instructions on how to register for your E-Services account on the back of your June 2024 property tax bill.
There is a unique sign-up key and customer code located on the back of your tax bill that you will need to enter to create your account at https://eservices.severn.ca.
After you subscribe, you will be able to view your bill online and your bills will continue to be sent to you via email.

Tax bill due dates
Final tax bills are due in two instalments:
- August 8
- October 8
If you haven’t received your tax bill, please contact us and we can help. Property owners are liable for property taxes and late penalties, even if you didn’t receive a tax bill.
If we don't receive your property tax payment by the due date, a late payment penalty of 1.25% will be issued on the day following the due date. An additional 1.25% will be charged each month that your property taxes remain unpaid.
Payment options
You can pay your property taxes in a variety of ways.
If you were previously registered for our pre-authorized payment plan prior to June 2024 and the launch of our E-Services portal, your payment will be withdrawn as per your payment plan. If you would like to receive your bill by email only (paperless) please register for your new E-Services account.
