Value Adjustment Board (VAB)

Petition Filing Deadline:  September 17, 2024, 5:00 pm

To file your petition online, click here.

The Value Adjustment Board (VAB) serves as the decision-maker when there is disagreement between a property owner and our county’s Property Appraiser concerning a property’s exemptions, valuations, portability decisions, or change of ownership/control. Denial of a taxpayer’s application for any of the following exemptions or special use classifications may also prompt a taxpayer to file a petition: Homestead Exemption, any other tax exemption as provided by Chapter 196, Florida Statutes, or, any special use classification as provided by Chapter 193, Florida Statutes.

Taxpayers or their representatives may file petitions with the VAB Clerk in the county where the property is located. In Clay County, the office of the VAB Clerk can be reached at (904) 529-4125 or by email at VAB@clayclerk.com.
