Council Tax Calculator
Our council tax calculator estimates your annual bill based on your property band (A-H) and local authority. Properties are banded based on their April 1991 estimated value.
Council Tax Band Checker
Check if you might be in the wrong council tax band and could be due a refund.
Select your local authority and property band. Council tax is set by each local authority and varies significantly across England, Scotland, and Wales — the same Band D property in different areas can attract very different annual bills. Your band was set in 1991 based on estimated property values at that time and has not generally been updated since. If you believe your band is incorrect — for example, if neighbouring similar properties are in a lower band — you can challenge your banding through the Valuation Office Agency in England and Wales or the Scottish Assessors Association in Scotland. The results show your full annual council tax and the monthly direct debit equivalent if spread over 10 or 12 months.
