The Commissioner of the Revenue is one of five of Loudoun's constitutional officers, so named because their offices are specifically established by the Constitution of Virginia. These local officers are elected by the people along with state and federal representatives.  These officers are elected county-wide, as is the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, to serve all residents of the county.

The Commissioner is the chief tax assessing officer in the county, responsible for assessing individual and business tangible personal property, machinery and tools, business license, short-term rental, transient occupancy, public service corporation, and bank franchise taxes. The Commissioner also provides state income tax assistance and administers the tax relief program for the elderly and disabled.  The office also serves as a DMV Select Agent, providing Virginia residents with vehicle registration and license plate services.

Loudoun's real property is valued by a separate agency, the Office of the County Assessor. The Assessor, an appointee of the Board of Supervisors, is responsible for this agency and reports to the County Administrator.

The office's mission is to serve citizens and the business community by administering tax programs mandated by the Code of Virginia and local ordinance in a manner that is efficient, fair, equitable and thorough, while protecting the confidential personal and business information entrusted to the office.
