Council tax appeals

Appeals against banding

The grounds for appeal about the banding of your property are restricted to the following cases:

  • where you became the taxpayer for a home for the first time. (Your appeal must be made to the Listing Officer within 6 months, but if the same appeal has already been considered and determined by a Valuation Tribunal, it cannot be made again)
  • where you believe that the banding should be changed because there has been a material increase or material reduction in a home's value
  • where you start or stop using part of your home to carry out a business, or the balance between domestic and business use change
  • where the Listing Officer has altered a list without a proposal having been made by a taxpayer.
