Disagree with Your Council Tax Band

What can I do if I disagree with the council tax band for my property?

Council tax banding is the responsibility of the valuation office agency (part of the inland revenue). There are only limited circumstances when an appeal can be made. For example:

• Demolition of a property, conversion of houses into flats and physical changes in the locality may affect the value.
• A taxpayer can also appeal within 6 months of becoming a taxpayer or having their band changed, and within 6 months of a band change to a property similar to their own.

If you require further information on appeals against bandings you should contact:
