Apply for a Council Tax discount or an exemption
Check if you're eligible for a Council Tax discount or exemption.
In order to apply, you will need your Council Tax account number.
You might be entitled to a discount or exemption depending on your circumstances. Check your eligibility before you apply.
Your reference number is eight digits beginning with a 4. If you cannot find your account number, there are a few places to check before you contact us.
These are:
- On the top right corner of any bills or reminders we have sent you.
- Council Tax correspondence sent by either email or post
- If you have a Direct Debit set up for Council Tax, your account number can be found as your payment reference number. You should find this in bank statements or in the Direct Debit management section of banking apps.
- If you have an online account with us that has your Council Tax account linked, you can find this in My Services
