Problems paying Council Tax?
If you're having problems paying let us know straight away and we'll check for discounts and Council Tax support
The amount of Council Tax you need to pay depends on the valuation of your property.
Valuation are carried out by the Valuation Office Agency (part of HMRC) and not by us as a council. Valuations haven't been changed since Council Tax was introduced in 1993.
Properties are divided into 8 bands depending on value. To find out which band your property is in check on the Valuation Office Agency website.
The table shows how much Council Tax you will need to pay in 2020/2021. It is worked out on the value of your property and the area of Ashfield you live in.

To work out the Council Tax for a home we multiply the amount due for a property in band D by the relevant fraction shown below. We then round the figure to the nearest penny.
As well as collecting our own Council Tax part of the amount your pay is to fund services delivered by Nottinghamshire County Council, Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner, and the Parish Councils of Selston and Annesley and Felley.
You may be able to have your Council Tax reduced if a disabled person is living in the property (adult or child) and the property has been adapted in some way to meet the needs of that person.
To get a reduction, the property must have one of these:
Minor adaptations, such as handrails, will NOT apply.
Your bill shows if you are already getting this reduction. The reduced Council Tax is given by charging as if the property was in the next lower valuation band. For example, if the property is actually in Band C, we charge the tax as Band B. Homes in Band A can also get a reduction.
If your home has any special internal features which have been added for a disabled resident which reduces the home's value and you do not think they have been taken into account in the valuation band to which your home has been assigned, you should contact the Valuation Office Agency.
