Council tax appeals

You can appeal against a council tax decision, when -

• we are charging you council tax and you do not think that you are the person who should pay
• you think you should get a discount and we are not giving you one, or we are not giving you the correct amount of discount
• you think your property should be exempt from council tax.

If you want to appeal against your council tax banding, please see our information on council tax bands.

What happens next

We will look at your appeal and let you know our decision as soon as we can. If you are still not happy with this decision, you can appeal to the Valuation Tribunal.

The Valuation Tribunal

The Valuation Tribunal is not part of the council. If you decide to appeal, you will be able to tell the tribunal about your case and we will be able to say why we have made our decision. The tribunal will decide whether our decision is right.

We will tell you how to appeal to the Valuation Tribunal when we tell you our decision.

Visit the Valuation Tribunal Service website for more information (link opens in new window)

Please note that if you make an appeal, you must still pay your bill while you are waiting for the appeal to be dealt with.
