Property Taxes


Your property tax includes the educational tax rate set by the Province of Alberta. These taxes are collected by the City for the province to fund public and separate schools. Council cannot change the education rates set by the province. Property Search Link

School Declaration


Now that Beaumont has two school districts, Public and Roman Catholic, individuals can declare support for property taxes to a specific district. If you would like to declare support for the Roman Catholic separate school district, fill out the School Support Form (PDF) and submit to the City.

Tax Certificates


In order to obtain a tax certificate, fax a request to 780-929-8729.

There is a cost of $25 for this service, which will be invoiced to you when the tax certificate is prepared. We process tax certificates on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons at which time we will fax your tax certificate immediately and mail the original. Please allow up to 48 hours for your request to be processed, as we are unable to do ‘rush' tax certificates at this time.

Tax certificates can now be ordered online through the City of Beaumont website. Please email vch@beaumont.ab.ca to register for this service.
