About Council Tax Appeals

You can appeal your Council Tax banding via the Valuation Office Agency (VOA), or appeal a decision about exemptions or discounts to your local council. This letter sets out the grounds, supporting evidence, and the resolution you\u2019re seeking.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I appeal banding?

Within 6 months of a change to the property, or if you believe the band is wrong compared to similar properties on your street. Outside that, you can still ask the VOA to review.

What if my council rejects an exemption claim?

You have 2 months to appeal to the Valuation Tribunal. This letter is the first formal step recording the grounds.

What evidence helps?

Banding of similar nearby properties, sales evidence (purchase price + date), photos showing material differences, recent council decisions.

Is it free to generate?

Yes — free for single use. Pro and Elite plans give clean downloads.
