Council tax bands and the valuation list
The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) keeps a list of all dwellings in England. The VOA assigns each dwelling on this list with a council tax band. They do this based on what the market value of the dwelling would have been on 1 April 1991. If the dwelling did not exist on 1 April 1991, they assume what the market value might have been.
| Range of values as at 1 April 1991 | Valuation band |
|---|---|
| Up to £40,000 | A |
| More than £40,000 and up to
£52,000 | B |
| More than £52,000 and up to £68,000 | C |
| More than £68,000 and up to £88,000 | D |
| More than £88,000 and up to £120,000 | E |
