New Maryland Tax Connect Portal Available Now

Hagerstown, MD (April 3, 2024)  The Washington County, MD Department of Business and Economic Development is pleased to announce the new Maryland Tax Connect Portal.  All businesses are now required to register in this new tax portal.

“This self-service portal aims to support Maryland taxpayers in filing their taxes online more easily and more securely, as well as interact with the Comptroller’s office in a variety of ways,” says Jonathan Horowitz, Director of the Department of Business and Economic Development. “Business taxpayers will be able to use Maryland Tax Connect Portal to easily file and pay their state taxes.”

Although only business taxpayers will be able to use the portal at this time, by 2026, all Maryland taxpayers will be able to pay their state taxes through the Maryland Tax Connect portal.

  • Making online payments,
  • Updating personal information,
  • Retrieving tax information,
  • Filing returns
  • Viewing filing and tax history,
