The Harrison County Treasurer has the responsibility of collecting real estate and personal property (mobile homes, rv's, inventory, equipment, 4-wheelers, etc.) taxes twice a year. Personal Property taxes bills arrive on either blue or yellow paper.

The Harrison County Treasurer's office mails late notices for personal property taxes after July 1, every year. If taxes have not been paid after 30 days then the amounts are certified to the Harrison Couny Circuit Court Clerk as leins. The delinquent tax amount then accrues interest until the date that it is paid in full.
