Before billing, the tax assessor determines the value of the property. Selectmen then vote to set the annual tax rate. Taxes are committed during September/October and one bill is issued thereafter. Taxes are payable in two installments:

First half is November 30th and second half is April 30th!
​
By law, bills or reminders that are not received does not prevent interest from accruing. Payments that are mailed will be dated by the postmarked date not the date written on the check.

Mark Robinson serves as the in-office notary for the Town of Fayette. Please call to make an appointment to have a document notarized.

You will need the following to apply for a marriage license:
   Intentions of Marriage:

1. ANYONE may file intentions of Marriage in the State of Maine.
2. Intentions are filed when a signed, notarized VS-2a has been submitted to a municipal clerk, along with the fee.
3. The bride & groom MUST supply their social security number when filing Intentions of Marriage.
4. There is no additional documentation required at the time the Intentions are filed.

  License & Certification of Marriage:

1. Intentions of Marriage must have been filed prior to issuing a License & Certificate of Marriage (VS-2).
2. The original pink form is prepared for issuance by obtaining the information from the Intentions of Marriage.
3. Previously married persons MUST present, to the municipal clerk, a CERTIFIED copy of a divorce decree, divorce certificate or death certificate, indicating how the last marriage ended. The municipal clerk does NOT need to keep this; he/she just needs to see the document to verify that the previously married person is free to marry.
4. A photocopy of the original (pink) VS-2 is issued to the bride and groom once they have signed the original in the presence of the issuing municipal clerk. (If the clerk's office wishes to have original signatures of the bride and groom on their record, then they should make the copy before obtaining signatures. The clerk MUST make sure the bride and groom sign original signatures on BOTH copies in this case.)
5. After Marriage has taken place &  the Marriage License has been signed by witnesses and the Officiant, it needs to be returned to the municipal clerk for filing with the State of Maine, and a certified copy can be issued at that time.

   Fees:
     $ 40.00   To file for Intentions
     $ 15.00    1st Certified Copy (requested by Bride & Groom)
     $ 6.00     Additional Certified Copies (requested by Bride & Groom at the same time the 1st copy is requested)
