Here is a step-by-step guide on how to register and pay your property taxes with the City of Burnaby.

Step 2: Add Your Property Tax Account

To add your property tax account to your profile, you will need your folio number and access code. These can be found below your name and address on your property tax notice. Once you have these details, you can log in to your profile and add your property tax account.

Step 3: Sign Up for eBilling

You can choose to receive your tax bill via email or view it electronically through the secure My Property Portal.
