Tax Protest

How to Protest Your Property Tax Value in Tarrant County

If you think TAD overvalued your property, you can protest — the deadline is generally May 15 or 30 days after your notice arrives.

Tarrant County Money & Taxes

Each spring, TAD mails a Notice of Appraised Value. You can file a protest online at tad.org or mail a written notice. The Tarrant Appraisal Review Board (TARB), a separate citizen board, hears protests and can lower your value.

TAD also offers a value negotiation tool for residential owners to settle disputes without a formal hearing. Check your notice for the exact deadline — it can be 30 days from the date on your notice if that is later than May 15.
