Each taxpayer is required by Alabama Law (Code Ş40-7-1) to provide a complete list of all property which is owned. The person acquiring property is responsible for reporting to the Revenue Commissioner a complete legal description of the property and should at that time claim any exemptions for which he and/or she is eligible. The Revenue Commissioner should be furnished a correct mailing address for all properties. Thereafter, the property owner must report any changes in ownership and any improvements or deletions to the Revenue Commissioner

The Perry County Revenue Department Assessment Department is responsible for assessing property and helping property owners claim proper tax exemption.

It is very important that you follow proper procedures when buying property, making additions to property or making deletions to property.

Any additions or deletions to property must be recorded by October 1st to be assessed by December 31st.

It is the property owners responsibility to ensure that all information recorded in the tax assessment office is accurate and up to date.
