Council Tax: Property Valuation Bands
The Valuation Office Agency compiles and maintains the Council Tax list for domestic properties.
Powys County Council are responsible for the billing and collection of Council Tax including any awarding and relief, discount or exemption from payment.
We then set the amount of Council Tax for each band. You can find out which band your property is in or if you think your property is in the wrong band, you can Challenge your band by visiting the valuation office website below

Finding out more about your Council Tax band
The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) maintains the Council Tax Valuation List. This includes placing new properties within a Council Tax band and changing bands for properties when necessary.
To understand why your property is in a certain band, please go to GOV.UK and search 'How domestic properties are assessed for Council Tax bands'.
You can ask the VOA to review your Council Tax band if you think it is wrong and you have been the taxpayer for less than six months, or your band has changed in the last six months. If this does not apply you can still ask VOA to review your Council Tax band, but you'll need to provide strong supporting evidence showing why you believe your property is in the wrong band.
You can find out more by going to GOV.UK and searching 'Challenge your Council Tax band'. The online service allows you to check your band and submit a challenge if you think your band may be wrong.
