Valuation bands
The amount of Council Tax you must pay depends on the valuation band that your property has been allocated.
- Each property in the same valuation band will be charged the same amount of Council Tax.
- This is except for those areas that have Parish Council precepts (where there is an extra charge).
- The amount taxpayer pays can also differ due to rebates, discounts and other reductions.

If you believe your property's valuation band is wrong
The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) values domestic properties for Council Tax. This valuation is used to set your Council Tax Band. You might need to contact the VOA if you think your Council Tax band is wrong.
For more details, visit: Challenge your Council Tax band (GOV.UK). (You can also find the contact details for the VOA on this webpage.) If you cannot use the online service, you can contact the VOA by phone: 03000 501 501.
If you challenge your band, you must still pay Council Tax at your current band, until your appeal is decided.
