Who handles each part of a Gregg County property tax bill

Property tax has more than one front desk. Gregg CAD appraises taxable property and receives exemption applications. A formal dispute over an appraisal goes to the independent Gregg Appraisal Review Board. The appraisal district does not set tax rates.

Each taxing unit adopts its own rate. The tax assessor-collector serving that unit then prepares and collects its taxes. Gregg County's Tax Office collects for many local units, but not every school district. The collector named on the tax statement is the right office for payment questions. When no bill is at hand, the Comptroller's county directory identifies the current collector.
