Texas Property Tax Guide
Texas Property Tax Protest Deadline
The usual Texas protest deadline is May 15 or 30 days after the appraisal district mails the Notice of Appraised Value, whichever is later. The deadline on the official notice and district instructions should control.
Why deadlines need official confirmation
Deadlines can depend on the notice date, property type, late notice issues, weekends, holidays, and district procedures. Do not rely on a generic web date if your notice says something different.
JC Tax Group structures deadline content centrally so current official guidance can be updated without rewriting every county and city page.
What to do when the deadline is close
Save the notice, confirm the property ID, preserve any evidence you already have, and start the protest process as early as possible. Filing first can preserve rights while evidence is still being assembled.
