Council tax banding is determined by the value of your property as assessed by the Valuation Office Agency (VOA). Each property falls into one of eight bands based on its value as of 1st April 1991, and this banding influences the amount of council tax you will pay.
Here's the band range by value:
| Band | Property Value Range |
|---|---|
| A | Up to £40,000 |
| B | £40,001 to £52,000 |
| C | £52,001 to £68,000 |
| D | £68,001 to £88,000 |
| E | £88,001 to £120,000 |
| F | £120,001 to £160,000 |
| G | £160,001 to £320,000 |
| H | Over £320,000 |
If you believe your property is in the wrong band, you can appeal to the VOA. This process is only applicable if you think there's been an error in how your band has been determined or if you meet certain conditions for an exemption. For more details on how to appeal, you can visit the VOA's website.
