How much is my council tax?
The rate of council tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991.

How the bands were set
All properties were valued and put into a valuation band between A and H – in England these bands are based on their value on 1 April 1991, not their current value.
The valuation band determines how much council tax you pay and is set by the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) which is a central government agency. Visit the VOA website if you want further details.
