   CREDIT &  EXEMPTION APPLICATION DEADLINES

      New veteran credit, disabled exemption, and elderly exemption applications are due in the Selectmen’s Office NO LATER than April 15 annually.  

If you have already been approved for a credit or exemption,
you do not need to reapply. 

     The law does require that we verify information every five years to comply with the NH certification process.  The veteran credit verification was done in 2004, and the elderly exemption verification process was done in 2005.  Both were redone in the summer of 2009 to comply with the 2010 recertification process.

 Property Taxes and Assessing Information:

2009 Tax Rate $23.12

2008 Equalization Ratio 104.6%

If you are buying a specific property, find out what the actual taxes are for a full year and ask questions about the assessment.  Every state assesses differently and this may avoid surprises after you move in.  The tax year in the State of NH runs from April 1 to March 31.  Fremont bills only once per year, with taxes due annually on December 1.

For any questions on how your tax assessment was derived or copies of your tax card, call the Selectmen's Office at 603 895 2226 x 11 or send an email to:  FremontTownHall@comcast.net

For any questions on tax payments or interest calculations, contact the Tax Collector at 603 895 3200 x 14 or send an email to:
