Pay Taxes & Fines Online

TAXES

In an effort to meet requests from taxpayers, the St. Mary Parish Sheriff's Office expanded property tax payment options. For your convenience, St. Mary Parish Sheriff’s Office now offers a payment option that allows for credit and debit card transactions online. This new service is being offered in partnership with Value Payment Systems (VPS) and Software & Services. 

Credit and debit cards are accepted. A convenience fee based on the number of transactions and total payment amount will be assessed by the payment processing company. Please see the website for detailed fee information. 

St. Mary Parish Sheriff’s Office recognizes that fewer transactions take place using cash or checks and is therefore providing this paperless payment option to taxpayers. Visit http://snstaxpayments.com/stmary and pay using a credit or debit card from the comfort of your home.

FINES 

Currently, there is no option to pay fines online. Fines may be paid in person at our office in Franklin on the 4th Floor of the parish courthouse at 500 Main Street. Local checks, cash, and money orders are accepted as payment. If you would like to pay using a credit card, you may only do so by making arrangements through the Franklin office by calling 337-828-6979. There is an additional fee for the pay by credit card service.
