How Council Tax bands work
Every home in England, Wales and Scotland is placed in a Council Tax band based on its estimated value at a fixed valuation date, and each band pays a fixed proportion of the Band D charge. England and Wales share the same "ninths" scale — from six-ninths for Band A up to eighteen-ninths (double) for Band H — and Wales adds a top Band I at twenty-one ninths for its highest-value homes. Scotland's bands A to D also use ninths, but bands E to H were reformed in April 2017 onto a steeper scale. Northern Ireland does not use Council Tax at all — it charges domestic rates based on a property's capital value instead. The actual amount for Band D is set separately by each local council (plus parish, town or community council precepts), so it varies significantly across the country — always use your own council's published figure for an accurate result. Most councils collect Council Tax over 10 monthly instalments, from April to January, with a payment-free February and March, but you can usually ask to spread it over 12 equal instalments instead.
