Appellate Tax Board
MISSION
The Appellate Tax Board (Board) is a quasi-judicial agency in the executive branch but with reporting requirements to the General Court. It is devoted exclusively to hearing and deciding cases on appeal from any state or local taxing authority. The Board was established by the Legislature in 1929 to relieve the Superior Court of the large volume of tax appeals, and to provide taxpayers wit a less expensive and more expedient means of appeal. The Board handles appeals related to virtually all state taxes and excises as well as appeals of local property taxes from all 351 cities and towns of the Commonwealth.
