Does this apply to you?
If you own tangible personal property that is used to produce income, such as the equipment or inventory owned by a business, it does.

 

What is a rendition?
A rendition is a report to your appraisal district that lists all of the taxable property that you owned or controlled on Jan. 1 of this year. This often applies to furniture, fixtures, equipment or inventory owned by a business.

What are the advantages of filing?
You give your opinion of your property’s value.

• You record your correct mailing address so your tax bills will go to the right address.

• If your property’s value depreciated, you can file a report of decreased value.

​

What is the deadline?

• For most property types, renditions must be filed with the appraisal district after Jan. 1 and no later than April 15. Different deadlines apply in certain appraisal districts. A property owner may apply, in writing, for a mandatory extension to May 15.

• Different deadlines apply for regulated properties.

• The chief appraiser may extend the deadline another 15 days for good cause shown in writing by the property owner for each type of property.

​

REMEMBER!

Filing is your responsibility. If you render late, don’t render, or file an incomplete or false rendition, you may face a 10 to 50 percent penalty.
