About Us

The Travis County Tax Office plays a vital role in local government by delivering essential public services that support community funding, transportation, and civic engagement. We are responsible for four core services: collecting court fines and fees, motor vehicle title and registration, property tax assessment and collection, and voter registration. That means we:

• Register and title motor vehicles
• Issue state license plates
• Issue placards for persons with disabilities
• Collect property taxes and court fines and fees
• Register voters and train volunteer deputy registrars

Every day, our team serves more than 1,000 in-person customers and answers up to 1,200 calls. Each year, we:

• Collect over $6 billion in property taxes for more than 418,000 tax accounts across 160 taxing units
• Process more than one million vehicle titles and registrations, collecting over $250 million
• Collect over $1.5 million in court fines and fees
• Maintain voter registration records for approximately 850,000 registered voters, supporting elections for more than 200 government entities

Our work requires accuracy, accountability, and timely service—and we take that responsibility seriously.

To empower everyone in Travis County to keep our community funded, moving, and engaged.

We engage with the community and one another with a productive, joyful, and purposeful approach to public service.

We are collaborative, welcoming, excellent, respectful, and dependable.
