Alaska Property Tax Appeal Guide
Deadline varies by county — check your county's appraisal district.
| Deadline | Within 30 days after the assessor mails the assessment notice, filed in writing with the local Board of Equalization. Alaska has no statewide property tax; the deadline is set by each borough or municipality from its own notice-mailing date (e.g., the Municipality of Anchorage mails notices by mid-January and sets a deadline ~30 days later — Feb 11 for 2026). The exact calendar date varies by jurisdiction. — AS 29.45.190(a) |
