All businesses must file property tax renditions with their county appraisal districts by April 15, but those that have been affected by the pandemic may request an extension to May 15 by writing to the chief appraiser, Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar announced Tuesday.
A rendition, which allows a property owner to record an opinion of property values, is a list of the taxable inventory, furniture and fixtures, machinery, equipment and other property owned or managed by a business as of Jan. 1 each year. Owners who had property damaged by a storm, flood or fire may file a special decreased value report that could lower the owner's 2020 final tax bills.
