Property Appraisal Notices Coming From Department Of Revenue

Property Tax Appraisal Notice

This month, the Montana Department of Revenue is mailing property classification and appraisal notices to all owners of residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural land properties. Here's what they look like.

These notices are not tax bills. Instead, they include the Montana DOR’s determination of market or productivity value and the taxable value for your property that will be used to determine the property taxes owed for 2023 and 2024. Learn more about these notices and how property taxes are calculated here.

If property owners disagree with the department’s determination of value for their property, they may submit a request for review within 30 days of the date on their notice. Owners can electronically submit the form, download it, and find more information on the informal review process at MTRevenue.gov.

The Montana DOR will host public meetings in July to help taxpayers understand the property valuation process and how the department determined the new values on their classification and appraisal notices. Meetings in Gallatin County will be at the following locations:

  • July 10 – Manhattan Town Hall (207 S. Sixth St.) – 4-8 PM
