Property tax payment

How to pay a Galloway Township tax bill

Galloway Township provides an official online Tax & Sewer Bill portal through Edmunds GovTech. The Township also accepts payments at the municipal office and by mail.

Official online portal: Galloway Township Tax & Sewer Bill payment portal. Electronic payment fees may apply. Review the amount and any processing charge shown by the portal before submitting payment.

Online payment steps

Open the official Galloway portal Use the Township-linked WIPP payment system rather than a payment link found on an unrelated third-party website.
Find the correct account Search using the property or account information requested by the portal. Compare the property details before continuing.
Review the balance Check the installment, outstanding balance and account information. If the property recently changed ownership or a mortgage company normally pays the bill, confirm the account before submitting money.
Select the payment method Review the payment choices and any electronic processing fee displayed by the service.
Confirm the payment Verify the account, payment amount and payment method before final submission.
Keep the confirmation Save the confirmation page or receipt. If the payment does not later appear on the account, the confirmation information can help the Tax Collector research the transaction.
Electronic fees: The Township states that additional fees are charged for electronic payments, but its Tax Collector page does not publish one universal fee amount. Check the current charge in the official payment system before completing the transaction.

Pay by mail

Mail property-tax payments to the Township of Galloway, Attn: Tax Collector, 300 East Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway, NJ 08205. The Township recommends including the payment stub so the payment can be applied to the correct account.

Property-tax deductions and relief for Galloway residents

Local deductions and exemptions

New Jersey provides a potential annual $250 property-tax deduction for qualifying senior citizens and disabled persons who meet the state’s ownership, residency, income and filing requirements.
Qualifying veterans may be eligible for a $250 annual veterans’ property-tax deduction.
Certain 100% permanently and totally disabled veterans may qualify for a full property-tax exemption on a principal residence.
Other New Jersey exemptions, abatements and deferment programs have separate eligibility requirements.
Do not assume eligibility from age or veteran status alone. Ownership, occupancy, residency, income, service history, disability status and filing deadlines can affect eligibility depending on the program.

Senior homeowners and certain Social Security or Railroad Retirement disability benefit recipients use the combined PAS-1 application for applicable property-tax relief programs. Other applicants should follow the filing instructions shown by the Division of Taxation for their household category.
