Somerset County, Maryland
Where to look, which office to contact, and how to request records.
Where to obtain records
Somerset County Finance Department / Tax Collections
Maryland SDAT official local tax-collector directoryContact the office for delinquent property tax records. This guide does not confirm an online search or current bill list.
How to find the information
Maryland’s official collector directory identifies Somerset County Tax Collections at 11916 Somerset Avenue, Room 116, Princess Anne, and lists 410-651-0440 for tax-sale questions. Its linked property-tax service uses Edmunds WIPP and requires JavaScript to display. Ask Tax Collections for the existing unpaid ledger, the correct dated sale publication or certificate/redemption history.
For existing records, provide the account/parcel identifier, tax or fiscal year and desired as-of date. Specify an ordinary unpaid collection ledger, dated tax-sale advertisement, certificate history or a current redemption quote. Ask whether municipal bills, utilities, special assessments, penalties, interest, later taxes and certificate-holder costs are included. Confirm inspection, electronic-copy, certification, research and extract charges before ordering. SDAT ownership/assessment data, a payment receipt and an old sale list do not certify the complete current amount due.
