Fergus County, Montana
Where to look, which office to contact, and how to request records.
Where to obtain records
Fergus County Treasurer / Property Tax
County tax-records access guidanceHow to find the information
Treasurer’s Office provides Tax Information and lists separate real-estate, mobile-home and personal-property schedules. Use 406-535-9220 or treasurer@fergusmt.gov to request an existing real-property account report or history.
To obtain an existing delinquent real-property report, account/payment ledger, bill copy or dated redemption/payoff calculation, provide the county tax ID/parcel or geocode if known, tax years, desired as-of date and preferred inspection or electronic-copy format. Ask which taxes, interest, penalties and costs are included and confirm any copy, certification or extract charge. A dated list, lien or deed record does not certify today’s unpaid balance.
What to ask for
“I am looking for publicly available delinquent real-property tax records for Fergus County for [tax year]. Which office maintains these records? Is there an online search or downloadable list? If not, how can I request a copy, and what fees apply?”
Have the property address, parcel number, owner name, and tax year ready when searching for a particular property.
County-specific notes
The office also provides Motor Vehicle Forms. Identify the parcel and charge type so a vehicle record or mobile-home bill is not confused with a land-tax delinquency. Review concerns access guidance rather than certified taxpayer liability. No account registration, payment, lien-assignment application or records-request submission was made; no taxpayer rows or owner-list attachments are included in this import.
