Press Release from Williamsburg County Treasurer's Office

The Williamsburg County Treasurer’s Office opened the 2026 tax book for tax collection on Monday, November 9, 2026. Real property owners who have not received their 2026 tax notice by mail should contact the County Auditor’s Office at the Public Service Building, 201 West Main St., Kingstree, SC, or call 843-355-9321, ext. 5600.

To avoid a penalty, mailed payments must bear a post office postmark dated on or before the next penalty date. Section 12-45-180 of the South Carolina Code of Laws states, “The United States postmark is the determining date for mailed payments.” Dates printed by business or personal postage meters do not establish timely mailing.

On the final day to pay without penalty, the online payment cutoff is 5:00 p.m. After that time, a penalty will be added to each unpaid bill.

Owners of real property may apply for the Advance Installment Payments Program for the 2027 tax year by completing an application at the Treasurer’s Office beginning December 7, through December 31, 2026.

The Treasurer’s Office encourages property owners to read and follow the instructions on both sides of their tax notices.
