Payment Options

Online banking

Pay your property taxes online or by phone, just like any other bill. To ensure a smooth transaction, follow these steps:

  • Payee: Select “Sechelt - Taxes” in your payment options.

  • Folio Number: Before entering your eight-digit folio number, add Jur number 570 at the beginning, and remove the decimal (e.g., 570 00094650).

  • Processing Time: Online payments take 3-5 days to process. To avoid late fees, make payments several days before the deadline.

  • Deadline: Payments must be received by July 2nd, 2025—not just sent.

  • Bank Processing: The District of Sechelt is not responsible for processing times. Please check with your bank to ensure timely payment.

Paying by mail

We accept property tax cheques post-dated. 

Make your cheque payable to the District of Sechelt and mail it, along with the remittance stub.

Please allow suitable mailing time. Payments will be on time if postdated on or before the due date.

Mail delayed by Canada Post will be considered late and subject to penalty.

Paying at the Municipal Hall

We accept Cheque, Cash, or Debit.

CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS AND FOREIGN CURRENCY ARE NOT ACCEPTED FOR PROPERTY TAXES

Mortgage

It is the responsibility of both you and your mortgage provider to ensure that your property taxes are fully paid to the District. This includes any portion covered by the Provincial Home Owner Grant, if eligible.

  • Mortgage Provider Notification: Your mortgage provider must inform the District of Sechelt if they require annual property tax details for your property.

  • New Mortgage? As a precaution, if you've recently obtained a mortgage, we recommend providing your mortgage holder with a copy of your property tax notice to confirm they are submitting payments on your behalf.

Pre-Authorized Prepayment Plan

Taxpayers are responsible for determining their fixed monthly prepayment amount, which will be automatically deducted from their bank account on the first business day of each month for a 10-month period, from August to May.

  • Minimum Payment: The monthly installment must be at least $10.00.

  • How to Apply: Complete an application form and submit it along with a VOID cheque to the municipal hall.

  • Already Enrolled? No need to reapply! Your monthly payments will automatically resume in August

Water utility fee

The Sunshine Coast Regional District is responsible for the water service in the District of Sechelt. For more information please contact them directly, online or by phone at 604-885-6800.

Any water user fee unpaid by December 31st of any year it is due shall be deemed taxes in arrears on the land or real property on which the fee is imposed.  Once added to taxes these accounts accrue interest at a rate set quarterly by the Province.
