- Find the parcel's Tax District number from our Assessment Lookup website.

COMMERCIAL TRANSPORTATION TAX DISTRICT
The 2007 Session of the Virginia General Assembly enacted state legislation that provided several new sources of revenue for transportation purposes. Among other things, that legislation established a separate classification for certain commercial and industrial property within the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA) and the Hampton Road Transportation Authority. Localities within those two transportation authorities may now impose a property tax on commercial and industrial property, and the revenues from any such levy must be used exclusively for transportation purposes that benefit the locality imposing the levy.
Fairfax County lies within the boundaries of NVTA, and pursuant to that 2007 state legislation, the County is authorized by law to separately classify certain commercial and industrial property for the transportation tax. On September 10, 2007 and as amended on December 3, 2007, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors advertised and held public hearings to adopt a local ordinance to implement that new classification.
State law allows a maximum rate of up to $0.125 per $100 of assessed valuation to be levied for this tax. The revenue raised is used for transportation purposes in Fairfax County, subject to appropriation by the Board of Supervisors. This tax is collected at the same time and on the same bill as normal General Fund taxes (i.e., in two installments, due July 28 and December 5).
Residentially used properties, including apartments, mobile home, and senior care properties are not subject to this tax levy. All commercial and industrially used parcels, including vacant land parcels that have a commercial/industrial zoning, will be subject to this tax levy. If a parcel has a residential zoning, but is used for commercial/industrial purposes, it will also be subject to the tax levy. If a property is being used for both residential and commercial/industrial uses (mixed use), the portion of the property used for commercial/industrial uses will be subject to the tax levy.

INFESTATION PREVENTION (PEST INFESTATION CONTROL - SPECIAL TAX DISTRICT)
The Pest Infestation Control Special Tax District is a countywide tax levy that supports the Integrated Pest Management Program.
The Integrated Pest Management Program includes two separate programs: the Forest Pest Program managed by the Urban Forest Management Division of the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services and the Disease-Carrying Insects Program managed by the Health Department.
The Forest Pest Program currently focuses on preventing the spread of specific forest insects and diseases in the county. Currently, there are five insects and two diseases on the list maintained by the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services: the gypsy moth, cankerworm, emerald ash borer, hemlock woolly adelgid, Asian longhorned beetle, sudden oak death, and thousand canker disease.
The Disease-Carrying Insects Program focuses on controlling the spread of the West Nile virus, Lyme disease, and other mosquito and tick-borne diseases.
TOWN OF HERNDON REAL ESTATE TAX
On March 8, 2022, Fairfax County and the Town of Herndon entered into an agreement whereby the county’s Department of Tax Administration (DTA) will collect current real property taxes owed to the town, as well as delinquent taxes from June 1, 2022, and forward years. Any invoices or past due invoices prior to the 2022 tax year will be billed by the town. This new agreement will allow property owners in the town to receive and pay just one bill, for both county and town taxes, rather than two separate bills.
SERVICE CHARGES
For some properties, an additional service charge is added to the basic real estate tax. Your assessment notice shows whether your property is subject to any of these service charges. If you have any questions, please contact our office.
