Council tax payments and enquiries

Whilst the County's element of your Council Tax is the largest part of the overall Council Tax bill, we neither collect nor administer any part of the Council Tax. All payments should be made directly to your district or city council, therefore the County Council is unable to help with any enquiries relating to paying your Council Tax.

Please contact your district or city council instead, using the contact details below or accessing their websites by clicking over the council's name.
