How Arkansas assessment appeals generally work (state framework reviewed 2026-08-02 from official Arkansas sources): County assessors determine true market value; taxable assessed value is generally 20% of true market value. The County Board of Equalization is the first appeal forum. A property owner may next petition County Court, where the County Judge hears the appeal.
Arkansas deadline framework: A County Board of Equalization appeal is due in person or by letter or petition to the board secretary on or before the third Monday in August. A County Court petition is due by the second Monday in October.
Local variation in Arkansas: County assessors, clerks, and equalization boards administer forms, contacts, hearings, accepted delivery, and county-specific proof instructions.
Before relying on a date: Resolve the county, then verify the current notice, Equalization Board secretary, form or petition format, submission channel, hearing schedule, and proof requirements.
