Council tax is a local tax levied on domestic properties in the United Kingdom. The amount of council tax you pay is determined by the valuation band of your property. There are eight valuation bands in England and Wales, and nine in Scotland. The higher the valuation band, the higher the amount of council tax you will pay.
It is important to check your council tax band to ensure that you are paying the correct amount of tax. If you believe that you are in the wrong valuation band, you can appeal to the Valuation Office Agency (VOA). The VOA will then reassess your property and issue you with a new valuation band.
