How to pay Derry property taxes
The Town of Derry lists several ways to pay a tax bill: online, in person, by U.S. Mail, through a Municipal Center drop box, or through the drive-up window. The online real-estate portal is the fastest starting point when you want to review an account before paying.
Online payment steps
Other payment routes
Visit the Tax Collector at the Derry Municipal Center. Verify that the office is open before traveling because current Town pages show conflicting hours.
The Tax Collector page lists both a drop box at the Municipal Center and drive-up service as payment options.
The Town accepts tax payments by U.S. Mail. Follow the remittance instructions printed on the current bill and avoid guessing at a mailing address if your bill provides a specific one.

When Derry property-tax bills are issued
Derry normally bills property taxes twice each year. The first bill is an estimate, while the final bill uses the tax rate established later in the year and accounts for the first payment already made.
| Bill | How it works | Usual timing |
|---|---|---|
| First bill | Normally an estimated bill based on about one-half of the prior year’s tax. | Printed and mailed near the end of May; due July 1. |
| Final bill | Uses the new tax rate and the property’s April 1 assessed value, less payments made on the first bill. | Usually mailed in late October or early November and due 30 days after mailing. |
What is the Derry NH property-tax rate?
The latest rate currently posted on the Town’s Tax Collector information is the 2025 tax rate of $18.99 per $1,000 of assessed value. The final rate for a later tax year should not be assumed until the New Hampshire Department of Revenue has set it and the Town has published the update.
Tax Collector vs. Derry Assessor: who handles your issue?
The Tax Collector collects property taxes. The Assessor determines property values, prepares assessment information and handles matters such as abatements and many exemption or credit questions. Paying a bill and disputing an assessment are therefore different tasks.
- Current property-tax bill payments
- Questions about a tax payment
- Tax bill account or payment status
- Payment methods and office payment options
- Assessed property value
- Abatement applications
- Property record or assessment questions
- Applicable exemptions and credits
Derry property-tax relief and abatements
2026 assessment abatement
The Town’s Assessor states that a person seeking an abatement for the 2026 tax year must apply in writing after receiving the final November 2026 tax bill and file by March 1, 2027. The abatement process concerns the assessment and is handled through Assessing rather than by simply withholding payment from the Tax Collector.
Low- and moderate-income homeowner relief
Derry’s current DP-8 information says a homeowner may qualify for New Hampshire low- and moderate-income property-tax relief if the home is subject to the state education property tax, the claimant owned and occupied the homestead as of April 1 of the claim year, and household income falls within the State program limits.
Other services handled through the Derry Tax Collector
The office also handles transactions beyond real-estate taxes. Check the exact service requirements before visiting because online availability differs by transaction.
The Town allows eligible registration renewals online and also lists mail, in-person, drive-up and drop-box options.
The Town states that new auto registrations cannot be completed online and must be handled in person.
The Tax Collector page states that boat registrations cannot be completed online and must be done in person.
The Tax Collector accepts water and sewer payments through several payment channels, although billing questions may belong with Public Works.

If your Derry tax payment or bill does not look right
Do not assume that no payment is due. Review the official tax account and contact the Tax Collector if the account or mailing information needs clarification.
That is an assessment issue. Contact the Derry Assessor rather than trying to resolve the valuation through the payment portal.
Keep your transaction confirmation and contact the Tax Collector with the account and payment details. Avoid submitting a second payment until you understand the first transaction’s status.
Use the date printed on the current bill or official account record. Derry’s final bill is normally due 30 days after mailing rather than on a fixed December date every year.
