Council Tax bills for 2022/23 are being issued this month and the amount of money you will be paying from April depends on the size and value of your property, plus the number of people who live there.
Council Tax valuation bands are used to determine how much you pay - your home will be given a valuation band between A and H, based on your property's value at April 1,1991. Newer properties are given a band when they are built and are based on an estimate of their value had they existed on April 1, 1991.
The current value of your home may not be a good guide to the appropriate band and your local authority can also increase bills annually in line with the cost of services they provide.
