Find your official next step
This tool points you to guidance. It does not calculate entitlement, decide an application or promise a refund. Northern Ireland uses domestic rates rather than Council Tax.
Choose a nation and a topic, then find the official guidance.
While you check: keep paying the bill as required unless the billing authority gives you different instructions. If payments are unaffordable, contact the authority promptly about support and payment options.
Only nation and topic are selected here. This tool does not request your address, account number, income or medical details. Your choices are not saved or sent to us. Opening an official link takes you to that service.
Before you contact the authority
- Have the relevant bill or old account reference available for the authority; do not send it to this website.
- Write down the dates, household changes or billing issue you want checked.
- Ask what evidence, application process and deadlines apply.
- Do not count a possible reduction or refund in your budget until it is confirmed.
