Search Connecticut Property Tax Records
Connecticut property tax records are created and updated at the municipal level, then governed by statewide assessment and collection rules. This guide helps you search Connecticut property tax records across all counties and cities over 25,000 population using assessor databases, tax collector systems, and statute links from official sources. Use this page when you need parcel assessments, grand list context, payment records, exemption guidance, or municipal office routing for Connecticut property tax records in a specific location.
Connecticut Property Tax Records Basics
Connecticut property tax records are built on a 70% assessment ratio and an October 1 uniform assessment date. Revaluation is generally required every five years. Use state guidance with assessment statutes and collection statutes to keep context clear.
Connecticut property tax records include real estate values, personal property lines, and motor vehicle tax data. Since October 2024, municipalities follow MSRP-based motor vehicle valuation with depreciation schedules and a statewide capped mill rate for motor vehicles. Many cities use vendor portals for parts of Connecticut property tax records access.
Use municipal assessor directory, municipal tax collector directory, and municipal database references when local pages are hard to locate.
Connecticut Property Tax Records Program Resources
State resources provide baseline context for local records and annual filings. Use homeowner relief program guidance, Department of Revenue Services, and OPM forms and guidance when a request includes exemption or billing policy questions.
For legal references on credits and exemptions, keep Chapter 204a in your notes. The same legal framework supports county and city searches throughout this site.
Note: State agencies publish guidance, but municipal offices remain the source of most Connecticut property tax records.

Connecticut Property Tax Records Reference Notes
Connecticut property tax records research usually starts with municipal office pages and then moves to statewide legal context. This approach helps when a local site changes because the local office is still the source of record. It also keeps assessment data, billing data, and exemption timelines in one review path.
Connecticut requires consistent treatment of assessment years, tax due dates, and delinquency status. Keep the same terms across each search session so records from separate portals can be compared. This page is structured to support that workflow for Connecticut property tax records.
