Payments can be mailed to:

Town of View Royal
45 View Royal Avenue

The Town does not automatically issue a receipt for mailed in payments. If a receipt is required, your cancelled cheque (once processed by your banking institution) can act as a receipt or you can contact the Finance Department for assistance.

Online or Telephone Banking

Online and telephone banking can be used to make payments to the Town for property taxes and sewer utility payments. Please allow sufficient time for electronic delivery of your payment and consider your bank’s cutoff times as your payment must be processed with a payment initiation date on or before the due date.

Please be sure to select the correct vendor for the type of payment you want to make:

  • For Property Taxes: please ensure you select "View Royal (Town of) Tax or Taxes"
    Your account number is the last eight (8) digits of your roll number (without the decimal) shown on the top right corner of your property tax notice.

  • For Sewer Utility: please ensure you select "View Royal (Town of) - Utilities".  This will ensure that your payment is applied to your utility invoice rather than your property tax account.  Your sewer utility account number is the 14 digit account number on the top left of your sewer utility invoice beginning with '000'.

For more information on this payment option, please contact your financial institution.
