Pay Utility Bills By March 31 To Avoid Penalties

​Port Coquitlam property owners will be receiving their 2022 utility bill this week and are reminded that utility bills are due March 31 and can be paid online or in person.

All properties receiving their 2022 bills, include charges for water and sewer services. Residents who have not received their bills by mail by March 15, should immediately contact the Tax Office at 604-927-5425 or email taxes@portcoquitlam.ca.

The City encourages taxpayers to save time and skip the line by taking advantage of online banking or other payment methods, such as paying at your bank or mailing in a cheque or money order. Penalties will be applied if your financial institution rejects payment, or if payment is received after the due date (5% penalty for payments made after March 31 and a further 5% applies after May 31).

Residents can also sign up for the City’s convenient prepayment plan to start saving for next year’s utility and property tax bills by making manageable monthly payments. There are no administrative charges. Visit portcoquitlam.ca/prepayment for more information.

Property owners are also encouraged to go paperless and sign up for MyPortCoquitlam at my.portcoquitlam.ca to view and manage their City tax and utility bills online.
