Before Visiting a Seminole County Tax Collector Branch
If you were planning to visit 1490 Swanson Drive
Do not use the old Oviedo address simply because it appears in an older PDF, map listing or search result. Start with the live official locations page. If Oviedo has been restored as a full-service branch in the future, the current Tax Collector website is the appropriate place to confirm it.
If you only need a tag renewal
An Oviedo self-service kiosk may save a longer trip when your registration qualifies. If the kiosk cannot process the registration, use the Tax Collector’s online renewal route or a current branch.
If you only need to pay property tax
Use the official online search first. In-person service is usually unnecessary for a straightforward current tax bill unless you need help resolving an account issue, have a special payment situation or need assistance with a delinquent balance.
Avoid Tax, Toll and Driver-License Payment Scams
The Seminole County Tax Collector has warned residents about fraudulent text messages claiming that an immediate payment is required. The office states that the Tax Collector, FLHSMV and toll authorities will not text residents demanding immediate payment or personal information.
